"Money clearly illustrates that sound money is an essential foundation for a free and prosperous society and that the Federal Reserve's current policies are a greater threat to the economic future of the U.S. than government deficit spending. This is an important book well worth reading."
John A. Allison, President and CEO, Cato Institute, and author of the New York Times bestselling The Financial Crisis and the Free Market Cure

"Few topics today are as misunderstood as the subject of money. Steve Forbes understands money better than most heads of state do, and in this provocative book he shares his vast knowledge and gives us sensible and time-tested recommendations for stopping future financial meltdowns."
Lawrence Kudlow, CNBC Senior Contributor

Greta Van Susteren, host of On the Record, Fox News Channel

"In this fascinating book, Steve Forbes makes the case for sound money and shows why a money system based on free trade--a system that allows the entrepreneurial dream to flourish--is not just good business; it also makes for a good society. Money is a rock-solid argument for the virtues of capitalism."
John Mackey, Co-founder and Co-CEO, Whole Foods Market; coauthor of the New York Times bestselling Conscious Capitalism
