How markets fail

John, c.

9780141036519 - How markets fail
Secondhand

Article description

How did we get to where we are? John Cassidy shows that the roots of our most recent financial failure lie not with individuals, but with an idea - the idea that markets are inherently rational. He gives us the big picture behind the financial headlines, tracing the rise and fall of free market ideology from Adam Smith to Milton Friedman and Alan Greenspan. Full of wit, sense and, above all, a deeper understanding, How Markets Fail argues for the end of utopian economics, and the beginning of a pragmatic, reality-based way of thinking.
