John Bloom’s “The Genius of Money” Reimagines the Financial World

You are now following RSF Social Finance.

The Genius of Money is RSF Director of Organizational Culture John Bloom’s newly published collection of essays and interviews about “reimagining the financial world.” In the author’s own words, “To understand money in the deepest sense is to journey inwardly to grapple with the ‘money self,’ to become more conscious economic participants in financial transactions with the world, and last but not least, to work to meet the material needs of others so that our economic needs are met through others’ work.” John examines money from a diversity of perspectives – historical, artistic, spiritual, social – and includes interviews with individuals who have transformed their own relationships to money while working to transform the way the world works with money. The book is timely in light of the current economic climate, and as John himself says, “It is time to look at the hard issues, especially money, in a new way that incorporates spirit and social values.”
