James Rickards is one of my favorite authors when it comes to the economy. One of my favorite books from him is Currency Wars. With that said, this book was helpful in that I learned more about precious metals and the arguments for (and against) their use with respect to the backing of a monetary standard.

This book should be of interest to all serious investors and anyone interested in financial affairs, especially the international monetary system. but even a person with only a passing interest in economics, should find it an informative read.
Significant movements in the price of gold affect us all, as they reflect what is happening in money markets and to the economies of the world. Rickards, the author of this work, presents us with a wealth of information about everything to do with the yellow metal - how it affects capital markets and vice versa. His analysis of why so many countries, particularly Russia and China, are adding to their gold reserves is, in my view, objective thought-provoking, and illuminating. He reminds us that there are only about 35,000 tons of 'official gold' in the whole world. What is 'official' gold? Which countries own most of it? What is its role in the monetary system? These and related issues are discussed with clarity in this absorbing book in language everyone can understand.
