For my own learning, I have combined this book with anthropology professor David Graeber's book 'Debt: The First 5000 Years' - which is already mentioned in OP's list. In his book, David debunks the myth that before we had monetary currencies, we had barter. He gives us beautiful descriptions of indigenous cultural practices around sharing resources; their use of gift economy principles. I know - this all sounds crazy right? The author Brett Scott has an easy to follow blog post where he helps the reader explore the many paradigm shifts needed to break the thought patterns behind our economic system: https://howwegettonext.com/the-future-of-money-depends-on-busting-the-fairy-tales-you-believe-about-its-past-30cbd90619e0 https://howwegettonext.com/the-future-of-money-depends-on-bu...
