Reviews
an excellent point of reference. Nick Taylor, London School of Economics Review of Books
`Review from previous edition An entertaining and provocative book. ' David Laidler, Professor of Economics, University of Western Ontario `Highly recommended. ' Barry Eichengreen, Professor of Economics, University of Berkeley `Praise for the German edition: A factually rich and clearly structured analysis. ' FAZ, Gerald Braunberger `Sinn's analysis is the most readable and best (popular science) account of the financial crisis that has yet appeared. ' Sebastian Dullien, Financial Times `One of the best books I've seen on the financial crisis. It is engagingly written and stands out for its precision and exceptional analytical depth. ' Jean-Claude Trichet, President, European Central Bank `This book is as gripping as a thriller and provides meticulous analysis instead of moralizing appeals. Recommended for everyone who wishes to understand the financial crisis and its consequences. ' Clemens Fuest, Professor of Economics, Oxford University, Chairman of German Finance Ministry Advisory Committee `There are bad and good books on the financial crisis. And there is Hans-Werner Sinn's book, by far the best book on the subject - a book one wishes to have written oneself. ' Wolfgang Wiegard, Professor of Economics, Member of the German Council of Economic Advisors `Sinn proves again his deep and subtle expertise in global financial economics, which has contributed to his ranking among the most reputable economists of our times. ' Andre Horovitz, Investment Banker `It is a highly enjoyable read: warmly recommended not only for economists! ' Reint Gropp, Professor of Economics, Business School Oestrich-Winkel
