Encyclopedia of Money (Library Binding)

. Providing more than 350 entries& 8211;ranging from the Babylonian grain and silver standard to the monetary reforms enacted by Boris Yeltsin& 8211;this work portrays the common characteristics shared by various types of money and monetary systems. Readers looking for in-depth writing laden with financial formulas will find this source lacking. Instead, Allen, an economics professor and author of The ABC-CLIO World History Companion to Capitalism, has created an excellent reference source for the general reader. Alphabetically arranged and written in a clear, accessible fashion, entries cover the many forms that money has assumed throughout history (for instance, large stone wheels called fei serve as currency on the island of Yap), the history of more common coins and currencies, and events that have shaped world attitudes toward money. The book, which includes numerous cross references, a useful index, and a brief bibliography at the end of each entry, will be a preferred starting point for librarians seeking to address general reference questions. An excellent addition to all business and economics collections. -Richard Paustenbaugh, Oklahoma State Univ. Lib., Stillwater Copyright 2000 Reed Business Information, Inc. . Related Articles
