Extreme Money: The Masters of the Universe and the Cult of Risk
Satyajit Das
Penguin Portfolio, 536 pages, 699

In a close look at modern global finance, Das uncovers the spectacular, dangerous money games that have generated increasingly massive bubbles of fake growth, Ponzi scheme prosperity, sophistication, and wealth—while endangering the jobs, possessions and futures of virtually everyone outside the financial industry.
