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 评分 评分Too big to fail, but it also too long to read.断断续续读了快一个月,终于读完了。感受如下: 1、书中出现的人名时间太多了,我到后面几乎是忽略人名,而仅关注起所在公司。 2、多人合译的痕迹还是比较明显,前后有些固定词汇翻译修订时可以更好统一。举个例子:General Cou...
Fantastic book! It's like reading a classic novel with intriguing details and fascinating characters. This book is not just about what happened on Wall Street and in Washington, but also how these powerful and influential people became who they were.
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08年的金融危机全注释本,不错~~~~~
评分我一直认为,这本书其实背后讲的是:苏利文拯救地球。
