I doubted about posting this, since there are so many flavors of Monopoly out there. Guess what? There is a new one now, the Warren Buffett Monopoly. So, in case you are interested, there it is. Certainly, the history behind Monopoly is far more interesting. Since I am talking about this game, I should point out an errata (mea culpa) that I made while writing about Monopoly's original designer: she was not Quaker. Actually, Quakers played their role in the process, but rather than reading it here, you should go out and buy a copy of The Playmakers, one of the best books about toys out there. The book is a lot of fun to read, includes great research, fantastic pictures and tons of information. It's a bit too American-centric but, as the author says in the preface, it's his book so if you don't like it go ahead and write yours. Seriously, go and grab a copy, it's that good.
