The book focuses on particular countries - the US, Japan, Britain, China, Latin America and Africa, and makes use of revealing interviews-in-depth with leading participants in the politics of money during the eighties, including Paul Voicker, Sir James Goldsmith and Akio Morita, which give the authentic inside view of the contemporary history of money.
