The Ascent of Money I finished reading a very timely book last night: Niall Ferguson's "The Ascent of Money". It's a great primer on the basics of money and lending - if you're a novice in that field (like me) trying to understand some of the reporting you see on CNBC, it's a great place to start.

Not only is it timely (he finished it in May of 2008, just as some of the credit mess was starting to really bubble), but it's written for the layman. Highly recommended.
