“I very much enjoyed working with Dirk on a variety of segments of his latest book. It's one of the very few that is fundamentally grounded in an understanding of monetary operations as practiced by all central banks, which gives the reader a sound basis for the analysis of today's monetary economies.”
–Warren Mosler, inventor of Modern Monetary Theory
"Ehnts’ no-nonsense introduction to MMT gets into the most up-to-date consequences of the Covid 19 crisis and government responses."
–Maren Poitras, director “Finding the Money”
“This compact introduction to all aspects of modern monetary theory is an exemplary work of popular science. The author, Dirk Ehnts, is a brilliant communicator, Europe's answer to Stephanie Kelton, and the book is an accessible and comprehensive guide to the first major challenge to mainstream macroeconomics in 70 years.”
–Steven Hail, Torrens University Australia
"Offering a rigorous analysis of the monetary system, this book should be on the desk of every public and government employee."
–Stephanie Kelton, author of “The Deficit Myth”
