Pulp Finction arrives … and the reviews are in
One of the things I have always struggled with is that most books about finance are either informative or entertaining. Very few manage to be both. That was the motivation behind writing Diary of a Ponzi Scheme. Rather than producing another business book explaining cryptocurrencies, tokenisation, digital currencies and central bank digital currencies, I wanted……
