Money Capital: New Monetary Principles for a More Prosperous Society
by Haizhou Huang & Patrick Bolton
Money Capital is by Patrick Bolton, a professor at Imperial College, and Haizhou Huang, an influential Chinese economist. The monetarism associated with Milton Friedman and Anna Jacobson Schwartz needs too many modifications to work, and the authors use the insights of corporate finance to suggest a neat solution: to view money as the equity capital of a nation. This is a major paradigm shift, and the book is important not just for what it proposes, but also how seriously it's being taken by Chinese policymakers. (Note: this book has equations).

Lots of new economics books are published each year, catering to a range of readers. Many are aimed at non-economists, trying to explain what the subject is about. Others focus mainly on how economics has been interpreted or used by politicians, with lots of analysis of ‘neoliberalism’ in particular over the past few years. Within academia, economics is normally expressed in equations, with new work published in article form and only occasionally as books.
