  abstract: This book will change the way you look at money. Money may seem hopelessly mundane and culturally meaningless, but it has dominated and documented world history since the time of the ancient Greeks. This heavily illustrated book provides a spirited account of the first coinages and their living descendants in our pockets and purses. It explains how people from Jesus to The Beatles have used numismatics to explore the social, political, economic and religious history of the world.
  table of contents: From the coin's point of view -- The invention of coins -- The first numismatists -- The second wave -- Science and pseudoscience -- Finding hoards -- Understanding hoards -- The ethos and ethics of collecting -- The journey continues.
