Inventing Value
The Social Construction of Monetary Worth
Dave Elder-Vass | Loughborough University

This book shows how value works, drawing on contemporary financial examples: the mortgagebacked securities that caused the global crash of 2008, how venture capitalists secure outrageous valuations for new companies, and the rise of Bitcoin.
