"Arthur Tresbit brought down the entire financial system and destroyed civilisation as we knew it. He is very sorry. But not so sorry that he will give a straight forward apology. Instead he decides to tell his own slightly rambling version of the story in the hope that people will stop wanting to kill him. It's highly doubtful that he'll be successful. The Apology of Arthur Tresbit is the hilarious novel about the next financial crisis. Arthur is a former physicist who takes a job in The City and unwittingly gets caught up in an elaborate Ponzi scheme. When he tries to extricate himself from the scheme he inadvertently sets off a chain reaction that causes a global financial catastrophe. While the book attempts to point out some of the vulnerabilities of the financial system, and offers some explanation as to what can cause a financial crisis, its primary aim is to be amusing, and its primary focus is the main character. Arthur struggles to live and work in an environment completely focused on money, and the stress affects every aspect of his life, especially his relationship with his wife. Completely out of place in the financial industry and feeling like a fraud, he embarks down an increasingly self-destructive path. But so entwined does he become in the fabric of the financial world, that when he tries get out, it all falls apart"--Blurb on Amazon.com
