This book has a unique perspective and is a refreshing interpretation of history from a monetary and economic perspective. The author Masakatsu Miyazaki is knowledgeable and explains the complex history of currency in an easy-to-understand manner. I especially like the introduction of currencies in various periods in the book, which is very interesting. But I hated the virtual currency part of the book, it felt a bit ethereal. Overall, this is a good book worth reading.
