Beschreibung

Coin Currency Impact examines how coin currency transcended its role as a simple medium of exchange to become a fundamental technology shaping societies. From the standardization of coinage, which streamlined trade and bolstered state power, to the critical role of trust in assigning value, the book explores the profound effects of coinage. One intriguing aspect is how the specific weight and metallic content of coins reflect rulers' economic ambitions and distress, while designs reveal ideologies and propaganda. The book traces the evolution of coinage from pre-coinage barter systems through Greek city-states, the Roman Empire, medieval royal mints, and modern fiat currencies. It analyzes minting practices like debasement and seigniorage, illustrating their long-term economic consequences, such as inflation and trade imbalances. By connecting monetary history to governance and social cohesion, Coin Currency Impact provides a unique perspective.

 
Employing an interdisciplinary approach, the book combines historical context, economic theory, and political science to analyze coinage's evolution. Archaeological finds, numismatic analysis, and contemporary texts are used to provide a comprehensive understanding of its impact. The book's structure progresses chronologically, offering valuable insights applicable to current debates on monetary policy and financial institutions.

Miracle Children - Race...

Katie Benner, Erica L. Green

A riveting investigation into a school, a scam, and a notorious college admissions scandal that exposes the inequalities and racial segregation of American education, from two award-winning New York Times journalistsT.M. Landry College Prep, a small private school in Breaux Bridge, Louisiana, boasted a 100 percent college acceptance rate, placing students at nearly every Ivy League university in the country. The spectacle of Landry students opening their acceptance letters to Harvard and Yale was broadcast on television and even celebrated by Michelle Obama. It became a national ritual to watch the miraculous success of these youngsters—miraculous because Breaux Bridge is one of the poorest counties in the country, ranked close to the bottom for test scores and high school graduation rates. T.M. Landry was said to be “minting prodigies,” and the prodigies were often black.How did the school do it? It didn’t: It was a scam, pulled off with fake transcripts and personal essays telling fake stories of triumph over adversity. Worse, Landry’s success concealed a nightmare of alleged abuse and coercion. In a yearslong investigation, Katie Benner and Erica L. Green explored the lives of the students, the school, the town, and Ivy League admissions to understand why black teens were pressured to trade in racial stereotypes of hardship for opportunity.Gripping and illuminating, Miracle Children argues that the lesson of T.M. Landry is not that the school gamed the system but that it played by the rules—that its deceptions and abuses were the outcome of segregated schools, inequitable education, and the belief that elite colleges are the nation’s last path to life-changing economic opportunity.A Macmillan Audio production from Metropolitan Books

Ancient Mesopotamia: An...

Enthralling History

How much do you know about the “cradle of civilization?” Come explore the legacy of the brilliant ancient Mesopotamians who transformed the world.
Ancient Mesopotamia’s legacy was truly revolutionary. Childlike pictures scratched into wet clay evolved into the first written language. The Mesopotamians wrote the first epic poems, the first hymns, the first histories, and the first law codes. They developed the first wheel for transportation; simple carts that hauled bricks or produce morphed into chariots racing along at thirty-five miles per hour.
They gazed at the sky and mapped it, observing the planets’ retrograde motions and predicting lunar and solar eclipses. They developed the concept of time, measurements, basic counting, higher math, and hydraulic engineering.
Mesopotamia gave birth to the world’s first great empires—the Akkadians, Assyrians, Babylonians, and Achaemenids—which stretched over three continents.
A glimpse at the questions this overview unpacks includes:How old is the world’s first city?How did the Eridu Genesis compare to Noah and the ark?How fast was the world’s first postal system?How many times did Babylon’s patron god Marduk get stolen?How did Hammurabi’s law code compare to the Law of Moses?Who calculated pi (π) to the value of 3.125 and understood the Pythagorean theorem twelve centuries before Pythagoras was born?Did Xerxes really have a million men in his army?Which empire encompassed 44 percent of the world’s population?What eunuch poisoned most of the Persian royal family?And much, much more!
