The Death of Money: The Coming Collapse of the International Monetary System

2014 Portfolio/Penguin hardcover, 20th printing. James Rickards (The Road to Ruin). The international monetary system has collapsed three times in the past hundred years, in 1914, 1939, and 1971. Each collapse was followed by a period of tumult: war, civil unrest, or significant damage to the stability of the global economy. Now James Rickards, the acclaimed author of Currency Wars, shows why another collapse is rapidly approaching-and why this time, nothing less than the institution of money itself is at risk. - Amazon
