…can recommend Debt by David Graeber. It is an economic history of the world that deals with the use of credit and bullion in different societies during history.

On top of my list of best books this year is The Golden Road by William Dalrymple
……复数形式），而且莫名其妙地以西方为中心。我之所以说“莫名其妙”，是因为 Frankopan 在引言里说想从中亚的视角来写一部历史，但结果根本不是那么回事。Dalrymple 的《Golden Road》反而实现了 Frankopan 的目标，而且总体上我觉得写得好得多。我不想显得对《Silk Roads》太苛刻，但如果你想了解当时的贸易……我觉得这个书名有些微妙的误导性。
