4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent overview, a little dated., June 17, 2000

By	C. Gilbert "frumiousb" (Amsterdam, the Netherlands) - See all my reviews (TOP 100 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

Surveys the different kinds of Internet-based money exchange systems available at the time of book writing. Also includes some interesting interviews and monetary history. Even though the situation has changed since the book was written, it still is worth reading for basic knowledge of the area.
