Omschrijving
In The Nearly Perfect Storm, An American Financial and Social Failure, Uyless Black unravels the mystery of how the failure of a single sector-the financial industry-triggered a meltdown in 2008 that devastated millions of Americans and countless others worldwide. Written from the perspective of a memoir of a concerned citizen trying to understand the enormity of the 2008 financial meltdown, this book digs deep into the financial, political, and social forces that set the stage for the worst recession since the Great Depression. With a unique blend of expertise and accessibility, Black-who has held senior positions in banking and finance, including as a Federal Reserve Board officer-makes the risky complexities of this crisis understandable to the average reader. He breaks down topics like "financial weapons of mass destruction" with clarity and even a touch of humor. This isn't a dry, academic tome; it's a gripping, well-documented exploration of human greed, regulatory failures, and the bipartisan policies that shaped America's economic collapse. For anyone still perplexed by how the missteps of Wall Street led to such widespread chaos, Black's book offers a balanced, insightful, and even entertaining look at the meltdown that shook the world.
