In The Reckoning, lo storico pluripremiato Jacob Soll mostra come l'uso e l'abuso della contabilità finanziaria abbiano determinato il destino di intere società. Di volta in volta, rivela Soll, una contabilità buona e onesta è stata uno strumento per costruire aziende, stati e imperi di successo. Tuttavia, quando viene trascurata o cade nelle mani sbagliate, la contabilità ha contribuito a cicli di distruzione che continuano ancora oggi. Combinando rigorosa erudizione e narrazione fresca, The Reckoning traccia la sorprendentemente potente influenza della contabilità sulla stabilità finanziaria e politica, dalla potente banca dei Medici nell'Italia del XIV secolo alla crisi finanziaria del 2008.
