Charles Wheelan: Naked Money: A Revealing Look at Our Financial System (2017, W. W. Norton & Company)

Review of 'Naked Money: A Revealing Look at Our Financial System' on 'Goodreads'

Great overview of money, central banking, and monetary history (including the Great Depression, the Panic of 2008, the recent Eurozone woes, and the US/China relationship). Sounds potentially daunting but he makes it very accessible. Read Naked Economics first.
