Reviews
It is a pleasure to review this book, chiefly because it was a pleasure to read. Whether one agrees or disagrees with the substance of Simon Gleeson's analysis, it is presented with a lightness and elegance of expression that is especially difficult in this area of law. ... The Legal Concept of Money is worthwhile reading for students, scholars, and practitioners grappling to deal with current developments and is a welcome contribution of the highest calibre to a discussion that has been characterised by much "grey" literature and expert headscratching. ... Gleeson's book is, I hope, the prologue to an exciting new chapter in scholarship. * G. Allen, Edinburgh Law Review *
clear and accessible ... the book sheds light on the many intricacies of the subject the world cannot do without and is a vital contribution to the understanding money in its legal context. * Prof. Dr. Bob Wessels08/04/2019. *
