Vom Beginn derlandwirtschaftlichen Revolution bis zur Digitalisierung deckt es dieverborgenen wirtschaftlichen Kräfte hinter Krieg, Innovation und sozialem Wandel auf. Es zeichnet nach, wie der Kapitalismus und das heutige Marktsystem entstanden sind, und stellt die wichtigsten Ideen und Menschen vor, die die Wirtschaft für immer geprägt haben.
