How money shapes power, debt, and daily life is laid bare in this provocative look at interest and the economy.
Originally published as a thoughtful critique, the work examines money not just as a tool, but as a force that influences wealth, labor, and policy. It traces money’s origin, questions common definitions, and argues for far-reaching changes to how banking and lending operate in society.
