Panderer to Power

by Frederick Sheehan

Overview

A critical look at the man behind the bubble economies of the last two decades

In his critically acclaimed Greenspan’s Bubbles, coauthor Frederick J. Sheehan exposed the starring role played by former Fed chairman Alan Greenspan in virtually every economic calamity of the past 19 years. Now Panderer to Power reveals the mix of towering ambition and poor judgment that compelled Greenspan to set policies that enriched Wall Street at the expense of the American economy.
