Reviews

""This book tells a story of human cooperation. It is not the narrative you'll find in books teaching you how to solve problems. It is an assemblage of something much more endemic, fundamentally human, and much more pervasive than we tend to think of informality. It involves money and power, but also the alternative currencies of gaining advantage or gaming the system.""-- ""Bruce Schneier, author of A Hacker's Mind""
