| |   |   | The Monkey and the MoneyA History of CapitalismBy Kjell A. Nordström.
 On capitalism's long evolution from barter to today's global economyAt some point around two million years ago, humans discovered that we could exchange one thing for another. We also invented capital, which today shapes the global economy. In this information-packed, entertaining, eye-opening book, Kjell A. Nordström guides us from the collaborative origins of prehistoric bartering to Adam Smith’s concept of specialization. How did we end up here? And what does the future hold for our immense, complex global economy that has now started to appear so vulnerable? Nordström provides hope that we will find new ways to continue our endless trading and exchanging that take ecological concerns into account. Kjell A. Nordström (born 1958) is the author of Funky Business (1999, cowritten with Jonas Ridderstråle) and Urban Express (2020, cowritten with Per Schlingmann).
