Reviews for Money Talks: Explaining How Money Really Works

To anyone interested in money's sociality past, present, and future and its ability to shape and be shaped by groups, collectives, organizations, and institutions this book is integral to the ongoing debate. ---Allister Pilar Plater, American Journal of Cultural Sociology Money Talks is a remarkable edited volume that is much needed. ---Cheris Shun-ching Chan, American Journal of Sociology Although Money Talks will be essential reading for anyone interested in understanding the state of scholarship in the sociology of money, the diverse and wide-ranging contributions should make individual chapters valuable to audiences well beyond the confines of this subfield. ---Russell J. Funk, Administrative Science Quarterly The book's central message--that the management and regulation of money should not be left to economists or bankers alone--is one we should all take to heart. ---Rebecca Spang, Financial Times
