In The Reckoning, award-winning historian Jacob Soll shows how the
use and misuse of financial bookkeeping has determined the fates of
entire societies. Time and again, Soll reveals, good and honest
accounting has been a tool to build successful companies, states
and empires. Yet when it is neglected or falls into the wrong
hands, accounting has contributed to cycles of destruction that
continue to this day. Combining rigorous scholarship and fresh
storytelling, The Reckoning traces the surprisingly powerful
influence of accounting on financial and political stability, from
the powerful Medici bank in the 14th century Italy to the 2008
financial crisis.
