Set your DVR. I’ll be on C-SPAN’s Book-TV, Saturday at 7:15 pm (after a full day of the National Book Festival). They taped me in July talking about my new book, The Almightier.

No cheating, show you Lock Screen.

Look, I had a thing Thursday night.

Pub Day!

My new book The Almightier is out today and is already the top new release in Amazon’s money section.

It’s a history of money from a unique angle: how money came from religion, how money broke free of religion, and how money eventually became its own religion.

That’s a timely story.

The Almightier is the #1 new release in Amazon’s Money & Monetary Policy section. Book lands Tuesday. We’re moving up the charts!

In Star Trek’s City on The Edge of Forever, Kirk and Spock travel back in time to the 1930s. The episode aired in 1967.

For a sci-fi show airing today that would be like sending your characters from the future back to…the 1990s.

Barnes & Noble members can save 25% between now and Friday on preorders of The Almightier: How Money Became God, Greed Became Virtue, and Debt Became Sin.

Pretty good deal you ask me.

Got a Canadian penny in my change that was minted in 1980. I thought, eh that’s not so old.

Then realized that was 45 years ago.

You can't understand what's happening today unless you understand the system in which it's happening. And most people do not, even the ones who think they do.

Today money is our god. I mean that literally. And that directs everything we do. The Almightier explains it.

The Sun Also Rises, but rather than World War I it’s about escaping the horrors of social media.

Money first appeared more than 5,000 years ago in temples in Mesopotamia. And that fact is more important than it might at first appear.

“The Almightier” is coming. #Money #Religion #Economics

What's better than saving money on a book about money? B&N is running a sale on preorders of The Almightier (for member). Order by Friday and get 25% off.

You were gonna order it anyway, so why not do it now and save some cash?

Palm Sunday was a protest movement. Pam Sunday was Occupy Wall Street, 2,000 years ago. Palm Sunday was Jesus and thousands of followers taking over the temple and destroying the economic order. From The Almightier:

The root of our current problems isn’t just money. It’s that nobody actually knows what money is, or why we value it. The hidden truth of money is that we have turned it into The Almightier, our modern god.

I wrote a book that explains, I think for the first time, how this happened.
