The Evolution of Money by David Orrell & Roman Chlupatý Summary
Overview of The Evolution of Money
Money isn't what you think. "The Evolution of Money" shatters economic myths, comparing currency to quantum physics - both particle and wave. Praised by top economists, it traces money's journey from Mesopotamian tablets to Bitcoin, revealing how it's always been about power, not barter.

When Numbers Became Our Reality
What if everything you thought you knew about money was backward? For thousands of years, we've been told a simple story: people bartered goods, then invented coins for convenience, and eventually developed banking. It's neat, logical, and completely false. Money didn't emerge from barter-it was imposed through conquest and maintained through force. It began not as metal coins but as virtual accounting systems in ancient temples. And today, despite our obsession with physical cash, we've come full circle: over 90% of money exists only as digital entries in bank computers, created not by governments but by private institutions with a few keystrokes. This isn't some conspiracy theory-it's the reality acknowledged by central banks themselves, yet it fundamentally contradicts everything we learned in Economics 101. Understanding money's true nature reveals why our financial system lurches from crisis to crisis, why inequality keeps widening, and why we feel increasingly trapped by an economic system that seems to serve everyone except us.
