Paul Krugman

"...lively and readable...Krugman's book may persuade governments to limit further austerity and that would be a fine thing."
Robin Harding, The Financial Times

In End This Depression Now! Paul Krugman shows how the failure of regulation to keep pace with an increasingly out-of-control financial system positioned the United States, and the world as a whole, for the greatest financial crisis since the 1930s. Decrying the tepid response thus far, he lays out the steps that must be taken to free ourselves and turn around a world economy stagnating in deep recession. His is a powerful message: a strong recovery is only one step away, if our leaders find the intellectual clarity and political will to see it through.
