Crisis

The Rise and Fall of Neoliberal Capitalism

This book is written by an economist, mainly for other economists - and he takes great care to make a solid argument. But I would skip to the end, to where we are now - in a crisis, that he reports on, just as carefully. 

The striking thing about this, to me - is that most people insist there is no crisis! 

They do not read him, or much of anyone else - and consider that their greatest virtue. They keep their minds free - from ideas that would contaminate them - and make them different.
