Former Greek finance minister Varoufakis insightfully examines international economics through a concise yet detailed discussion with his 14-year-old daughter. A staunch proponent of democracy, he explores the history of inequality; the role of industry and cyberspace; banking, government, individual, and group responses to market changes; and the tension between individual ambition and the needs of the community. The author relies on films such as
The Matrix as well as anthropological studies, making a potentially overwhelming subject accessible and offering information usually not covered in school.
VERDICT For all YA collections, and an excellent addition to social studies syllabi.
