Reviews

With Meltdown: The Financial Crisis, Consumer Protection, and the Road Forward, Larry Kirsch and Greg Squires provide a valuable service. . . . This book is the first of this type and hopefully sets a trend for evaluating the new federal oversight established after the Great Recession. . . . In sum, Kirsch and Squires have written an insightful book that documents an important phase of an agency's history; that is, how the agency came into being, and its institutional strengths and weaknesses. It provides valuable lessons for the CFPB's growth as well as providing suggestions about how to create future initiatives like this from scratch. - Shelterforce
