Publisher's Synopsis

""The Money God: Chapters of Heresy and Dissent Concerning Business Methods and Mercenary Ideals in American Life"" is a book written by John Charles Van Dyke and published in 1908. The book is a critique of the business practices and values prevalent in American society at that time. Van Dyke argues that the pursuit of wealth has become an all-consuming obsession, leading to a loss of moral values and a neglect of the common good. He examines the role of the businessman, the stock market, and the media in perpetuating this culture of greed. The book is divided into chapters, each exploring a different aspect of the problem. Van Dyke's writing is passionate and thought-provoking, offering a scathing indictment of the prevailing attitudes towards money and business in America. Despite its age, ""The Money God"" remains a relevant and insightful critique of modern capitalism and its impact on society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
