I enjoyed Extreme Money. It provides an interesting commentary on the current financial crisis. Das raises some good points about how "financialized" our economy is and the dangers inherent when money and financial instruments are created with less than a 1:1 relationship to the underlying assets.

As other reviewers have noted, the book could probably be a bit more concise. Nevertheless, I found it very thought-provoking and interesting.

It is a little ironic, though, that it has been long listed for the Goldman Sachs business book of the year.
