Andrew Ross Sorkin delivers the first true behind-the-scenes, moment-by-moment account of how the greatest financial crisis since the Great Depression developed into a global tsunami. From inside the corner office at Lehman Brothers to secret meetings in South Korea, and the corridors of Washington, Too Big to Fail is the definitive story of the most powerful men and women in finance and politics grappling with success and failure, ego and greed, and, ultimately, the fate of the world’s economy.
“We’ve got to get some foam down on the runway!” a sleepless Timothy Geithner, the then-president of the Federal Reserve of New York, would tell Henry M. Paulson, the Treasury secretary, about the catastrophic crash the world’s financial system would experience.
Through unprecedented access to the players involved, Too Big to Fail re-creates all the drama and turmoil, revealing never disclosed details and elucidating how decisions made on Wall Street over the past decade sowed the seeds of the debacle. This true story is not just a look at banks that were “too big to fail,” it is a real-life thriller with a cast of bold-faced names who themselves thought they were too big to fail.

评分这两年“大而不倒”的概念炒得挺火。前几天听说这本书是高盛和金融时报评出来的年度六本商业图书之一,另外五本的中文版应该还没出了吧,而且看到这本是小说应该不枯燥,就卖了来看。 昨天收到的,第一感觉是真厚,确实“大”。封面和整体设计挺漂亮的,很有设计感。不过这个封...
评分自手机装上audible,伟大首都的交通状况神奇地好转了很多。两月奔波,收获之一是听完了《TOO BIG TO FAIL》和《ON THE BRINK》。关于金融危机成因后果的作品早已晒满山坡,但若想获得悦读体验,这两本是最劲推荐。 《TOO BIG TO FAIL》书未出时已有重量级书评出埠,力捧声此起...

写得好好,多年后看依然悬念十足
评分终于读完了。后面几个章节真是惊心动魄。
评分内容很好,但是这本书的陈述方式我实在是很不喜欢,明明可以用一半篇幅就能讲明白的事情啰啰嗦嗦说了那么多……以及这个世界真是搞不好了,让人无法不想到The Power Elite这本书……
评分写得好好,多年后看依然悬念十足
评分资本主义到了最危险的时刻
