CITYCAM Vol 1 Think Again. So You Know About Money.

You have been taught four things about money: that it is a store of value, a medium of exchange, a unit of account, and a neutral veil over the real economy. Think Again is the book that weighs those four sayings against the working record - and finds them wanting.Drawing on seventeen years of published research, Roger G. Lewis takes the reader from the Bank of Amsterdam in 1609 to the BlackRock "Going Direct" proposal of 2019, from Lycurgus's iron currency to the algorithmic gatekeeper of the CBDC era. The argument is not ideological. It is archival. The witnesses - central bankers, monetary historians, dissenting economists, and the institutions' own published confessions - are cited at length and at primary source.Volume One of the CityCam trilogy. The credit-money settlement, examined from inside.
