Title: A fun and seamless look history of the financial services industry
Review: Not a complete and in depth analytical history of banking but rather a "pop-history" of consumer finance but the historical leg work is there. A look at the several innovators and their innovations that changed how we conduct our personal finances. From the credit card to the investment brokerage for the middle class and to the Fed's workings and financial legislation...a very good good bathroom/travel read, or as supplementary research for a report. What is constant through the book is the stigma removal of and the normalization of debt, the writer does a good job of staying "neutral" ion the topic but does indeed to be pro-consumption (and it shows by style. This is a well written fun to read look on modern financial history, buy it.
