Dorothy Rowe

The Real Meaning of Money (Text Only) (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

"We work for it, we think about it, we worry about it, we dream about it, we want more of it. We spend it, we hoard it, we give it away. We scheme, lie, even kill for it."

Money is one of the most elusive and abstract and yet unavoidable facts of modern life and is often at the heart of what we think about ourselves. It is also one of the most difficult subjects to discuss and causes more marital break-ups than infidelity - many people are less secretive about their sex lives than they are about their bank accounts.

With characteristic candour, psychologist Dorothy Rowe breaks through the complexities of financial systems and tackles the appeal and the paradoxes, the myths and the realities of making, managing and spending money.

"A very important book about one of the last social taboos"
HELENA KENNEDY

"A fascinating and entertaining read"
