Dave Elder-Vass argues that economists have failed to understand the nature and function of value. This book shows how value works, drawing on contemporary financial examples: the mortgage-backed securities that caused the global crash of 2008, how venture capitalists secure outrageous valuations for new companies, and the rise of Bitcoin.
