 This Time is Different: Eight Centuries of Financial Folly $35.00 This book really is an amazing achievement; the historical breadth is astonishing. I highly recommend it to anyone trying to make sense of our current economic crisis (you'll learn that we've been here before, lots of times, and that we wil likely be in this spot again as another cycle repeats). I suggest some complementary titles for people who liked this book: Too Big to Fail: The Inside Story of How Wall Street and Washington Fought to Save the Financial System---and Themselves The Return of Depression Economics and the Crisis of 2008 The Pecora Report: The 1934 Report on the Practices of Stock Exchanges from the "Pecora Commission" Keynes: The Return of the Master The Great Crash 1929 |
