Más información sobre el libro
La quatrième de couverture indique : "The current economic crisis has only one parallel : the Wall Street Crash of 1929 and subsequent Great Depression of the 1930's, which crippled the future of an entire generation and set the stage for the horrors of the Second World War. Yet this financial meltdown could have been avoided, had it not been for the decisions taken by a small number of central bankers. In Lords of finance, we meet these men, the four bankers who truly broke the world. Their names were lost to history, their lives and actions forgotten, until now. Ahamed tells their story in vivid and gripping detail, in a timely and arresting reminder that individuals, their ambitions, limitations and human nature, lie at the very heart of global catastrophe."
