They advocate for crowdfunding as a way for people to reclaim the power of their money and invest in a fairer and greener society. The book offers a historical and contemporary perspective on the relationship between money and power, and how the use of money has evolved over time.

The book offers a unique and insightful perspective on the role of money in society and the potential for crowdfunding to drive social and environmental progress.
