Alles Geld der Welt (Vitali Konstantinov)

A world without money is hard to imagine. Every nation has its own currency. And our everyday lives, whether we're at home, shopping or enjoying leisure time -- are marked by daily exchanges of money.But what is money really? Coins, bills, something stored in the bank? What about something complicated, like cryptocurrencies? Money is a huge subject. Who invented it, and when and why? What was trade like before money? And why is money divided up so unequally? Ever since money has existed, there have been arguments about what it is. A means to an end, or an end in itself? A thing, or an idea? A blessing or a curse? There has been every possible explanation.And yet, money remains a puzzle.With the help of this entertaining but informative graphic nonfiction book, at last we can begin to understand this puzzle and perhaps even become skilled money managers!
