is there any other books you'd recommend that's like this one?

books that describe the world in big picture, biz-related kind of way
I recommend these two:

Attempts to answer the question 'what is money, really?' and gives a fantastic birds eye view of world economy and economic hostory in the process. Captivating.

I think the two are written with opposite but not polar and certainly not unreasonable assumptions about the moral nature of capitalism.
Walden perhaps.
