Credit CrunchOctober 17, 2008 Mr. J. Ward(Leeds, UK) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I found this in an incredibly informative and insightful book about the present economic situation. It makes sense - though I am sure that some aspects of the book are controversial. The author challenges the reader to consider the origins of the credit crunch. The roots are found in free trade and the endless cost cutting pursuits of large corporations in advanced nations who are preoccupied with driving down costs in order to inflate their bottom line; hence the burgeoning trend towards outsourcing to low waged economies. But that is just the start. The book is highly comprehensive and readable.
