In 1949 a young Hungarian immigrant arrived in Belgium with a suitcase and a few dollars in his pocket. A little under fifty years later, Alexandre Lamfalussy presented the draft designs for the Euro banknotes - the second global currency - to the press. This book was born out of the desire to preserve the memory and trace the life of this exceptional European. AUTHOR: Christophe Lamfalussy is the eldest son of Alexandre Lamfalussy and a journalist. Ivo Maes is professor and senior advisor at the Department of Studies at the National Bank, Belgium. Sabine Peters lectures in history and civilisation at the European Institute of Florence. 40 b/w illustrations
