Tett is an anthropologist. I liked her treatment of the bankers as a tribe. I also appreciated how she shows the way that people concocted the ficticious capital of the boom. She is too awestruck by Jaimie Dimon and his operation, but I appreciated the book.
It is not a critique of capitalism or an analysis of the crisis, but she give a good picture of some of the culprits. -- Michael Perelman Economics Department California State University Chico, CA 95929 530 898 5321 fax 530 898 5901 http://michaelperelman.wordpress.com _______________________________________________ pen-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.csuchico.edu/mailman/listinfo/pen-l
