"This unflinching, troubling expose from Prins, a journalist and former banker at Lehman Brothers, forecasts impending doom for the global economy-all at the hands of central bankers....The book's most chilling section consists of Prins' predictions of what awaits a world economy threatened by rising income inequality and an elite class bent on preserving its dominance: a bigger collapse than the 2008 crisis. This dense though lively treatise is not for the faint of heart, but it's well worth a close read by anyone looking to understand the roots of the last crash and prepare for the next. -- ""Publishers Weekly"""
