Description
The Great Financial Crisis, triggered by the collapse of Lehman brothers in September 2008, had a profound impact on the world. A decade later, its effects still linger, with the spectre of the crisis haunting economies across Europe and the United States. Adam Tooze provides a brilliant analysis of what happened and how the world was rescued from the brink of disaster. However, this rescue came at a significant cost, with billions of dollars being conjured up to prevent complete collapse. The end of the crisis has been repeatedly announced, but its legacy continues to undermine democracy and institutions. Tooze's book is a compelling account of the crisis, combining history, economic analysis, and political horror. It offers a unique perspective on the events that shaped our world, making it a valuable read for anyone interested in understanding the complexities of the global economy.
