Chapter 2: Mega-Crisis to Metamorphosis—Can Civilization Be Saved?
The End of Money and the Future of Civilization (Chelsea Green 2009) remains as relevant and timely today as it was when first published. Unfortunately, bound copies have been out of print for the past several years, but the Kindle edition can still be downloaded from Amazon and there is an active market for used copies. Having recently had the rights reverted to me by my publisher, I have been considering republishing a revised and expanded edition of the book in serial form on my website. I will add some material that relates to recent developments like Bitcoin, blockchain, cryptocurrencies and smart contracts that will elaborate and expand upon what I’ve said in my previously published articles, Bitcoin, Blockchain, and the end of money as we’ve known it (2022) (https://beyondmoney.net/bitcoin-blockchain-and-the-end-of-money-as-weve-known-it/), and Bitcoin, Blockchain Technology, and Crypto-Currency (2016) (https://beyondmoney.net/2016/04/25/bitcoin-blockchain-technology-and-crypto-currency/). I will make it a priority to complete the series in less than a year. To be alerted as new material is posted you can follow me at my website https://beyondmoney.net
