The Power of Gold: The History of an Obsession Paperback - 2001
by Peter L. Bernstein
Summary
Incorporating myth, history and contemporary investigation, Bernstein tells the story of how human beings have become intoxicated, obsessed, enriched, impoverished, humbled and proud for the sake of gold. From the past to the future, Bernstein's portrayal of gold is intimately linked to the character of humankind.
First line
If gold were more plentiful on earth-say, as abundant as salt-it would be far less valuable and interesting, despite its unique physical attributes and beauty.
