I am a third grade teacher and this is a super book to use when teaching about money. It's a story about how a dollar gets passed on from person to person.

My Pastor taught me some things about tithing and offerings, but it is nothing close to the revelation I have seen in this book.
This book showed me why my tithings and offerings have not prospered me despite my zeal. I discovered the missing links in my spiritual financial planning. I think all pastors should get this book before they start preaching on God's prosperity. It is a teacher for teachers.
I give it 5 stars.

Keynes, Nurkse and Triffin speak from its pages. Also, contemporary leading economists, with the perspective that only history provides, analyze it in hindsight. A must have for the economic historian and the monetary economist.
