About this product

Product Information

WINNER OF THE LIONEL GELBER PRIZE A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK OF 2018 ONE OF THE ECONOMIST'S BOOKS OF THE YEAR A NEW YORK TIMES CRITICS' TOP BOOK "An intelligent explanation of the mechanisms that produced the crisis and the response to it...One of the great strengths of Tooze's book is to demonstrate the deeply intertwined nature of the European and American financial systems." --The New York Times Book Review From a prizewinning economic historian, an eye-opening reinterpretation of the 2008 economic crisis (and its ten-year aftermath) as a global event that directly led to the shockwaves being felt around the world today. We live in a world where dramatic shifts in the domestic and global economy command the headlines, from rollbacks in US banking regulations to tariffs that may ignite international trade wars. But current events have deep roots, and the key to navigating today's roiling policies lies in the events that started it all--the 2008 economic crisis and its aftermath. Despite initial attempts to downplay the crisis as a local incident, what happened on Wall Street beginning in 2008 was, in fact, a dramatic caesura of global significance that spiraled around the world, from the financial markets of the UK and Europe to the factories and dockyards of Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America, forcing a rearrangement of global governance. With a historian's eye for detail, connection, and consequence, Adam Tooze brings the story right up to today's negotiations, actions, and threats--a much-needed perspective on a global catastrophe and its long-term consequences.

Reviews
"First-rate financial history and an admirable effort to wrestle a world-changing series of events between covers." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Tooze makes the arcana of international economic policy relevant to a lay audience by framing his account with Donald Trump's political ascension...In addition to making international economics understandable and attention grabbing, Tooze has written an essential addition to the ranks of histories that place Trumpism in context." -- Publishers Weekly Praise for The Deluge "An essential book. Epic in scope, boldly argumentative, deftly interweaving military and economic narratives, The Deluge is a splendid interpretive history." -- The New York Times Book Review " Globe-spanning and wide-ranging...a look at a past that is both terribly remote and hauntingly familiar."-- Salon "Profound and brilliant...Very rarely, you read a book that inspires you to see a familiar story in an entirely different way." -- The Atlantic Praise for The Wages of Destruction "Masterful . . . [A] painstakingly researched, astonishingly erudite study...Tooze has added his name to the roll call of top-class scholars of Nazism." -- Financial Times "It is among Adam Tooze's many virtues in The Wages of Destruction that he can write about such matters with authority, explaining the technicalities of bombers and battleships. Hovering over his chronicle are two extraordinary questions: how Germany managed to last as long as it did before the collapse of 1945 and why, under Hitler, it thought it could achieve supremacy at all." -- The Wall Street Journal "An extraordinary achievement...Tooze has produced the most striking history of German strategy in the Second World War that we possess." -- History Today, "[A] monumental narrative history of 10 years that have reshaped our world... Crashed gives readers a detailed and superbly researched account of the origins and consequences of the wave of financial crises that emanated from the core of the global financial system from 2007. The prose is clear. The scholarship remarkable. Even people who have followed this story closely will learn a great deal." --Martin Wolf, The Financial Times "Likely to stand the test of time as the best history of 2008 written in its immediate shadow..As the 10th anniversary of the fall of Lehman Brothers approaches, many books on the financial crisis will be published. Few are likely to match Adam Tooze's Crashed in scope, ambition or rigour. This is truly contemporary history--the book runs right up to the end of 2017. It is hard to think of another author who can write as authoritatively on such a wide range of subjects." -- Prospect Magazine "An important and insightful work...combines an economic history with geopolitical analysis of the 2008 financial crisis and the subsequent decade." -- Library Journal (starred review) "First-rate financial history and an admirable effort to wrestle a world-changing series of events between covers." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Tooze makes the arcana of international economic policy relevant to a lay audience by framing his account with Donald Trump's political ascension...In addition to making international economics understandable and attention grabbing, Tooze has written an essential addition to the ranks of histories that place Trumpism in context." -- Publishers Weekly Praise for The Deluge "An essential book.
