The Richest Man in Babylon

Timeless Lessons on Wealth, Success & Financial Wisdom

From veteran Financial Times journalist, an epic history of the debt that built the modern world. Long considered the "boring" corner of finance, bonds are anything but. They have funded everything from the Crusades to climate tech, Netflix series to AI data centers. They are now bigger than the stock market and rival even the global banking system in influence. They are also misunderstood—treated as mere debt, when in fact their form, function, and impact are radically different. In A Fabulous Debt, Robin Wigglesworth—The Financial Times’ Global Finance Correspondent, and author of the acclaimed Trillions—offers a sweeping, affectionate history of the bond market. From the dyke-builders of 17th-century Holland to the trillion-dollar portfolios of BlackRock, this is a people’s history of finance: rich in drama, full of colorful characters, and bursting with insight.&nbsp; With clarity and wit, Wigglesworth takes readers from medieval Venice to modern Wall Street, tracing how bonds evolved from obscure financial instruments into the invisible architecture of the modern world. Along the way, we meet warlords and water boards, merchant princes and mathematicians, financiers and fraudsters—all of whom helped build the most powerful machine in global finance. This isn’t just a book about the past. It's a guide to the present and future of the financial system—and a love letter to the engine that keeps it running.

“If you read just one book about economics, make it Andrew Leigh's clear, insightful, and remarkable (and short) work.” —Claudia Goldin, recipient of the 2023 Nobel Prize in Economics and Henry Lee Professor of Economics at Harvard UniversityA sweeping, engrossing history of how economic forces have shaped the world—all in under 200 pagesOne of The Economist's Best Books of the YearIn How Economics Explains the World, Harvard-trained economist Andrew Leigh presents a new way to understand the human story. From the dawn of agriculture to AI, here is story of how ingenuity, greed, and desire for betterment have, to an astonishing degree, determined our past, present, and future.&nbsp;This small book indeed tells a big story. It is the story of capitalism – of how our market system developed. It is the story of the discipline of economics, and some of the key figures who formed it. And it is the story of how economic forces have shaped world history. Why didn’t Africa colonize Europe instead of the other way around? What happened when countries erected trade and immigration barriers in the 1930s? Why did the Allies win World War II? Why did inequality in many advanced countries fall during the 1950s and 1960s? How did property rights drive China’s growth surge in the 1980s? How does climate change threaten our future prosperity? You’ll find answers to these questions and more in How Economics Explains the World.“Can a short book survey the full history of something so vast and remain readable? To find out, read How Economics Explains the World, by Andrew Leigh. In simple, clear language—and less than 200 pages—it does exactly what its title promises. … Leigh canters through the history of human progress, pausing briefly to explain the economic forces and ideas that drove it forward. … Along the way, readers meet the big economic thinkers who sought to explain these forces. Both finance aficionados and mere novices will read, savour and return to this book.” –The Economist, “The Best New Books to Read about Finance”

How Economics Explains the World

An essential guide to managing your money for artists, freelancers, tech workers, influencers, and innovators, from an irreverent financial advisor There’s a good reason why so many people feel like the financial system doesn’t serve them: it wasn’t made for them. The system was built for a narrow version of adulthood with one high earner, one caretaker, maybe a couple of kids. For everyone else? They’re out of luck. Too often, personal finance leaves the growing ranks of people who don’t fit this paradigm – the happily single, the freelance artist, the equity-compensated – feeling like money’s a language they don’t understand. Creative Money is not just their translation guide, but an entirely new approach to personal finance that’s anchored in how people actually live and work now. Through frank advice and actionable habits, this book teaches readers how to: <ul><li>Monetize your creative output</li><li>Turn a windfall into financial security</li><li>Invest without lifting a finger</li><li>Rethink everything you know about buying a home</li><li>Connect money to happiness</li></ul> As a writer and founder of a successful financial advisory firm, author AJ Ayers offers the rare perspective of someone who has built a creative life and a career in wealth management at the same time. She is the wise friend perched on the barstool next to you, drawing on examples and anecdotes from her own life and hundreds of real client meetings. This book challenges our notions of what being “rich” means and gives readers the tools to achieve wealth, and maybe even happiness, on their own terms.
