    I would have liked to have seen more information on the difference between fiat money and the gold or silver standard. Overall, it was an excellent documentary and I would highly recommend it to others.

    Only half the program was shown in Uganda but it was eye opening, real great stuff. Its still abit difficult buying web stuff in africa but have to find it and definitely recommend it.

    I heard Mr. Ferguson on an Canadian political show called “Power Play” The short interview he gave intrigued me so much I googled to see if there was more about his book. Imagine how thrilled I was to see a special. There seems to be 2 versions though; a 2 hour vs a 4 hour. Can anyone clarify? Also we have viewed much of the material on this site. Thankyou. Even the preview mesmerized my husband.

    Niall Ferguson has left out (deliberately or not) Alexander Hamilton’s establishment of a national, sovereign credit system (no, not a credit card system!). Learn more at: http://www.larouchepac.com/lpactv?nid=11005

  17. Steve Miller says:

    My television is usually on PBS and this is the first time I’ve bought any episode or series. I thought I new more about money than perhaps 98% of the people, but after watching The Ascent of Money, I’ve been stunned at how much I didn’t know. A part of me wonders if Niall Ferguson is putting some “spin” on this to suit someone’s purpose.
