Finance is one of the most globalized and networked of human activities, and one of the most important social technologies ever invented. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e This volume, the first visually based book dedicated to finance, uses graphics and maps to bring the complex and abstract world of finance down to earth, showing how geography is fundamental for understanding finance, and vice versa. It illuminates the people--including Adam Smith, Karl Marx, and John Maynard Keynes--who have shaped our thinking about global finance; brings to life the ways that place-specific histories, laws, regulations, and institutions influence finance; shows how finance relates to innovation, globalization, and environmental change; and details how finance plays a key part in drawing the landscape of uneven development, inequality, and instability. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The \u003ci\u003eAtlas of Finance\u003c\/i\u003e, with word and image, will change the way you view both your money and your world.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDariusz Wójcik\u003c\/b\u003e is professor of financial geography at National University of Singapore.
