Making it Happen: Fred Goodwin, RBS and the Men who blew up the British Economy |
Don't understand the complex financial instruments behind the economic meltdown of 2007? Neither did Fred Goodwin. This clear and lively account of how a conservative Scottish bank came to lead the charge to disaster shows Fred the Shred with all his considerable faults but others - from Gordon Brown to Mervyn King - don't emerge unscathed. Educational and, in a grisly way, highly entertaining. (Tony Pratt - bwl 70 Autumn 2013) |
