Story
Broken Money explores the history of money through the lens of technology. Politics can affect things temporarily and locally, but technology is what drives things forward globally and permanently. The book's goal is for the listener to walk away with a deep understanding of money and monetary history, both in terms of theoretical foundations and in terms of practical implications.

Possibly the Best

Having listened to and read most of the bitcoin books available this immediately jumps to the top. The Bitcoin Standard started my journey to understanding bitcoin, but Lyn’s description of the history of money is as good or possibly better than TBS, respectfully. Incredible work

Good information - 5th edition difficult to listen to
Reviewed: 10-18-23
Unfortunately the revision to gender neutral language in this edition made it nearly unlistenable. Erasure of women and mothers (the most important person) from the book and replacement of “birthing people”, in nearly every sentence of the book made it difficult to listen to. Going back to the 4th edition would be very appropriate

Story
Principles of Economics is a university-level textbook in economics that offers a clear and concise exploration of the most important economic concepts. This book is unapologetically Austrian in its approach. It tackles major economic concepts and topics independently, but in a logical sequence aimed at delivering the listener an understanding of economics at an individual and societal level, and the widespread implications of economics as a topic.
