From the maker of the film, Inside Job, everything you didn’t want to know about the World Financial Crisis. He concentrates not just on what has been done but how these same financiers have ridden the storm, continuing to draw in obscene amounts of money and emerge unchallenged and out of gaol. It’s a book to make you despair and to make you angry, everyone should read it to find out how we’re being screwed by the financial elite – the criminal elite as Ferguson would have it.
