False Economy
Author(s): Alan Beattie
Time and again, world leaders have failed to learn the lessons of economic history, and their mistakes continue to have surprising and catastrophic consequences. Beattie uses stories of economic triumph and disaster to explain how some countries went wrong while others went right, and why it's so difficult to change course once on the path to ruin.
