This book has given me endless delight over the years, and still does. You're not too old for it, and few are too young for it. Makes you feel that just to be alive is to be part of a great, important tale, but a tale that can still be held easily in the mind and mulled over.

At the Fed, I was amazed by how so much of the world economy relies on so few intermediaries, e.g. 24 primary dealers handle all of Treasury auctions, 8 U.S. GSIBs provide most of the dollar-based liquidity to the world, 1 single bank (BNY) settles all tri-party repos.
