《紐約時報》《華爾街日報》暢銷書作家 為什麼我們會有錢？為什麼我們需要錢？｜從貝殼到比特幣，從以物易物到累積財富｜華爾街金童帶你探索金錢的生命 從生到死，金錢以各式各樣方式記錄我們一生重要時刻。在印度，大家送錢給新生嬰兒及其雙親。在日本，則送錢給新婚夫妻。在奈及利亞，金錢是陪葬品，跟著死者入土。金錢不僅影響我們的情緒、需求，甚至讓我們甘願為了金錢冒風險。我們對金錢習以為常，把擁有金錢多寡視為成功與否的標準，但卻很少探索為什麼金錢會在我們生命中扮演如此重要角色。 《錢的歷史》作者賽加爾是人人稱羨的華爾街金童，他目睹二○○八年金融風暴造成的傷害，立志要搞懂金融危機和個中原因。他花七年時間旅行超過七十萬英里，走訪超過二十五個國家，從荷蘭的鬱金香狂熱，到雷曼兄弟金融海嘯，探索金錢有什麼特色，讓全世界繞著它奔忙？金錢究竟有哪部分是我們無法掌握的？金錢又有哪些是讓我們產生怪異、不理性的行為？ 本書討論金錢的生命，分為頭腦、身體和靈魂三部分。頭腦部分：為什麼我們使用金錢？作者以生物學、心理學和人類學回答這個問題；身體部分：錢是什麼？藉由研究有史以來金錢的實體形式，以及未來可能的形式來回答這個問題；靈魂部分：我們應該如何運用金錢？作者轉向宗教和藝術，說明金錢不只是價值的象徵，也是我們價值觀的象徵。 作者帶領讀者走遍全球，深入探索金錢和人之間的關係。對金錢有深入、豐富的討論，也對人性本質和大腦思想的運作，提出妙趣橫生的介紹。他從生物學、心理學、人類學，和神學等不同學科的角度，探討金錢概念的原型與演化過程。本書寓教於樂的故事，將改變你對錢的定義。 《紐約時報》（The...
