Reviews
"Mann offers a fresh, new perspective on credit cards. In a book that is deeply researched and based on careful analysis of previously-unpublished data, he compares the risks of plastic with other forms of payment to arrive at startling conclusions about the effect of credit cards on the American consumer.
Mann's comparative data reach across Europe, North America and Asia , offering different visions of how payment systems may evolve. This is a must-read book for anyone who wants to understand the evolving world of consumer credit."
