The Age of Turbulence
Alan Greenspan
Eagerness to hear what Alan Greenspan has to say is nothing new. Hushed anticipation greeted every speech he made during his long tenure as America's central banker. National and world financial markets often turned on his most cryptic utterances. Now his memoir arrives in the midst of Wall Street's credit crunch, the war in Iraq's ambiguous fortunes, and the campaigns of a score of Democrats and Republicans who want to lead the world's dominant economic force. The Washington Heights–born, Juilliard-trained former musician offers an engaging narrative of how he went on to an unprecedented tenure as Federal Reserve Board chairman. Dr. Greenspan then surveys the global economy and offers savvy insight about what is truly an age of turbulence. Reading his views is indeed worth the investment.
