Just finished @adam_tooze's book. It's as good as all the hype. Somehow it managers to turn almost all of the events over the last 10 years into a cogent and engaging narrative. – source2018-06-24T17:18:38.000Z
I’ve read Crashed and it’s fantastic (review out next month).
This is really useful framing.
The financial crisis might seem like an unusual “next book” after Adam’s history of 1916-1931 (The Deluge)- but capital flows sit at the heart of both of them. – source
