A guide to money and how it works

Matthew Oldham’s introduction ranges from personal finances—bank accounts, earning and borrowing—to wider economic topics such as taxes, government spending and inflation. The coverage connects everyday money matters with the systems around them, while infographic illustrations, a glossary and selected website links provide different ways to explore the subject. The book also points beyond money as used in daily transactions, including examples from around the world and an online virtual-bank visit.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults beginning to learn about money and economics
  • Readers who want an introduction spanning personal finance and public spending
  • Those who value visual explanations, glossary support and linked online resources
