Great read.

An excellent book. Books of this nature should be regularly published, to maintain "Checks and Balances" in our system. Don't wait for a crisis to happen and write. Do it beforehand.

Stories that foretold our current economic crisis....

This is a compilation of articles written between 1999 and 2008 - approximately. The most interesting are those that predicted the government bailouts for companies "too big to fail" and the housing market that was doomed to collapse at any moment. Each of these articles were written a few years BEFORE the crisis actually hit. This was 20/20 foresight at it's best!

Read this book!

Great collection of articles on WHY the "meltdown" in our economy happened. Scary, thoughtful, interesting, and optimistic all at once time. Well worth the read.

Meltdown timeline

After reading this, you get a complete sense of the "Great Meltdown" and how it was completely forseeable and predicted.
