The title of this autobiography reflects a major milestone in the author's life. The dream refers to his desire to enter a university after high school and become a professor, an idea planted in his head by his mother. The shadows intervened in several ways. First, directly bearing on his ultimate goal were the discriminatory laws imposed upon Germany by Hitler, solely to artificially validate his illusions about race and ethnicity.

Bretton considers the subject of money and democracy in the context of how monetarization of societies proceeded from antiquity to the Industrial Revolution, and he analyzes the formative years of the United States in terms of being based on political ideas that did not take account of monetarization. He reviews what social theorists and economists from Aristotle to Friedman have thought about the role of money in society and how it affects individual behavior and social norms.
