A New York Times Bestseller
An unrivaled look at the fight to save the American economy.
In 2006, Ben S. Bernanke was appointed chair of the Federal Reserve, the unexpected apex of a personal journey from small-town South Carolina to prestigious academic appointments and finally public service in Washington’s halls of power.
There would be no time to celebrate.
The bursting of a housing bubble in 2007 exposed the hidden vulnerabilities of the global financial system, bringing it to the brink of meltdown. From the implosion of the investment bank Bear Stearns to the unprecedented bailout of insurance giant AIG, efforts to arrest the financial contagion consumed Bernanke and his team at the Fed. Around the clock, they fought the crisis with every tool at their disposal to keep the United States and world economies afloat.
Working with two U.S. presidents, and under fire from a fractious Congress and a public incensed by behavior on Wall Street, the Fed―alongside colleagues in the Treasury Department―successfully stabilized a teetering financial system. With creativity and decisiveness, they prevented an economic collapse of unimaginable scale and went on to craft the unorthodox programs that would help revive the U.S. economy and become the model for other countries.
Rich with detail of the decision-making process in Washington and indelible portraits of the major players, The Courage to Act recounts and explains the worst financial crisis and economic slump in America since the Great Depression, providing an insider’s account of the policy response.

評分一口氣買瞭很多本,都是單位用的。在京東買書發貨快,正版書,又能提供發票,隻是有時候大批量買書時庫存有些不足,總體還是非常不錯的。希望以後能增加一些書目,更多選擇。
評分從大而不倒到行動的勇氣,講述瞭美國08年金融危機的前前後後,這是美國人認為繼20世紀初經濟危機以來,資本主義所麵臨的第二次重大危機,伯南剋親身經曆並講述瞭當時處理金融危機及其 餘波的故事。值得細細品味
評分還沒看到門道,挺坦誠一本書
評分東西不錯,質量也挺好,物流速度也可以,服務態度也不錯,希望京東進一步加快速度,更多的東西支持當天到
評分有勇氣的人值得敬佩,我就服你
評分隻有7萬字,短瞭點。不過是一篇很好的經濟分析論文。
評分其實是挺薄的一本書,跟伯南剋的比比。。。
評分老爸要看的書,一次多買幾本。
