Description
A gripping account of the 2008 financial crisis, this book traces the chain of decisions, mounting risks, and institutional failures that brought America’s financial system to the brink of collapse. Drawing on 180 interviews with top government officials and other key participants, it offers a detailed, behind-the-scenes chronicle of the turmoil as it unfolded. With clarity and urgency, the narrative examines the excesses of Wall Street, the fragility of modern finance, and the far-reaching consequences for markets, policymakers, and ordinary citizens.
