As president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and then as President Barack Obama’s secretary of the Treasury, Timothy F. Geithner helped the United States navigate the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression, from boom to bust to rescue to recovery. In a candid, riveting, and historically illuminating memoir, he takes readers behind the scenes of the crisis, explaining the hard choices and politically unpalatable decisions he made to repair a broken financial system and prevent the collapse of the Main Street economy. This is the inside story of how a small group of policy makers—in a thick fog of uncertainty, with unimaginably high stakes—helped avoid a second depression but lost the American people doing it. Stress Test is also a valuable guide to how governments can better manage financial crises, because this one won’t be the last.

Stress Test reveals a side of Secretary Geithner the public has never seen, starting with his childhood as an American abroad. He recounts his early days as a young Treasury official helping to fight the international financial crises of the 1990s, then describes what he saw, what he did, and what he missed at the New York Fed before the Wall Street boom went bust. He takes readers inside the room as the crisis began, intensified, and burned out of control, discussing the most controversial episodes of his tenures at the New York Fed and the Treasury, including the rescue of Bear Stearns; the harrowing weekend when Lehman Brothers failed; the searing crucible of the AIG rescue as well as the furor over the firm’s lavish bonuses; the battles inside the Obama administration over his widely criticized but ultimately successful plan to end the crisis; and the bracing fight for the most sweeping financial reforms in more than seventy years. Secretary Geithner also describes the aftershocks of the crisis, including the administration’s efforts to address high unemployment, a series of brutal political battles over deficits and debt, and the drama over Europe’s repeated flirtations with the economic abyss.

Secretary Geithner is not a politician, but he has things to say about politics—the silliness, the nastiness, the toll it took on his family. But in the end, Stress Test is a hopeful story about public service. In this revealing memoir, Tim Geithner explains how America withstood the ultimate stress test of its political and financial systems.

关于美国财长盖特纳,我们知道些什么? 关于美国财长盖特纳,我们知道些什么?或许,用一般思维理解,他大约等同于中国的财政部部长——他高高在上,似乎看不到什么值得底层民众看到的那些现实情况;他掌握国计民生财政大权能影响国家经济政策的实行……如此这般,我们理所当...

1. 贯穿全书的一个伦理矛盾是:救市会挽救危机,但会姑息那些引发危机的不负责的华尔街贪婪鬼;不救虽然出了口气,但会让火势蔓延,造成更大的损失。 2. 作者非常明白且理解政治的障碍,但作者以技术官僚的专业立场坚定主张救市,因为这是正确的事。我相信作者+保尔森+伯南克的...

文笔流畅但不善演讲的 Treasury 头头,第一章让读者感觉就坐在会议室的某个角落暗中观察。

summer 0502-0730 中间停了半个月。接着慢慢读完了。我记住的东西很少,这种书可能要边做笔记边看吧。

大概整个DC,不,整个美国,能够如此细致地讲述、辩解和反思金融危机的人除了Geithner没有第二个人。会经常翻出来看。
