Abstract:
When first reading the title of the book, people may presume that there is a contradiction of terms, because the last thing that "money" usually makes us think about is "sacred". But each word in the title of this book is in its right place, as Charles Eisenstein, the author of Sacred Economics: Money, Gift, and Society in the Age of Transition, talks about a new system, conceived as a solution to the current global crisis, that reveals the sacredness of money and economy.
