Op zondag 15 augustus 1971 om negen uur 's avonds kondigde de Amerikaanse president Richard Nixon de belangrijkste economische gebeurtenis aan sinds de uitvinding van het geld. De loskoppeling van de dollar aan de goudstandaard werd een keerpunt in onze geschiedenis en veranderde de economie en onze maatschappij voorgoed. Het loslaten van de goudstandaard door Nixon creëerde een nieuw economisch model dat er uiteindelijk voor zorgde dat de vele voordelen van de technologische vooruitgang en globalisering grote groepen mensen in het Westen nauwelijks bereikten.

Just as today’s observers struggle to justify the workings of the free market in the wake of a global economic crisis, an earlier generation of economists revisited their worldviews following the Great Depression. The Great Persuasion is an intellectual history of that project. Angus Burgin traces the evolution of postwar economic thought in order to reconsider many of the most basic assumptions of our market-centered world.

Warren Buffett has repeatedly acknowledged Benjamin Graham, a man he personally studied and worked under, as the primary influence on his investment approach. Indeed, there is a direct line between the record-shattering investing performance of Buffett (and other value investors) and Graham's life. In six books and dozens of papers, Graham—widely known as the "Dean of Wall Street"—left an extensive account of an investing system that, as Buffett can attest to, actually works!

Keynes argumenta que las condiciones impuestas a Alemania llevarían a un resentimiento duradero y a futuros conflictos. Su obra desafía las políticas económicas predominantes de la época y advierte sobre las devastadoras consecuencias de imponer reparaciones excesivas a los países derrotados.

What sparks these vast economic calamities? Why do our economic policy makers fail to protect us from such upheavals? In Wrong, economist Richard Grossman addresses such questions, shining a light on the poor thinking behind nine of the worst economic policy mistakes of the past 200 years, missteps whose outcomes ranged from appalling to tragic.
