I have an extra copy of All the Devils are Here by Bethany McLean and Joe Nocera.
They put together an insightful look at the many factors that created the housing bubble and amplified the destruction when it popped. Pundits and purists have tried to pin the blame on a single element. It seems clear that many “devils” were at work. It’s not just institutions that failed in the crisis. The authors paint the pictures of key individuals who helped inadvertently build up the housing bubble or allowed for it cause mass destruction.
I thought it was a great book, but I don’t need two copies sitting on my bookshelf. If the book is on your reading list and you have not yet purchased it, here is a chance to get a free copy.
