Description:
"In a world in which monetization seems to be gobbling up every remote corner of social life, Money Talks makes a bold case for the continuing importance not only of subjective meaning in our understanding of money, but of social relations above and beyond exchanges between rational actors. This book brings together an interdisciplinary band of uncommonly smart and influential scholars to take stock of what we know about the myriad uses and meanings of money."--Frank Dobbin, Harvard University
Review Quotes: "The book's central message--that the management and regulation of money should not be left to economists or bankers alone--is one we should all take to heart."---Rebecca Spang, Financial Times
