No one has more authority to call the shots the way they really are than award-winning economist Paul Krugman, whose provocative New York Times columns are keenly followed by millions. One of the world's most respected economists, Krugman has been named America's most important columnist by the Washington Monthly and columnist of the year by Editor and Publisher magazine.A major bestseller, this influential and wide-ranging book has been praised by BusinessWeek as Krugman's "most provocative and compelling effort yet," the New York Review of Books as "refreshing," and Library Journal as "thought-provoking...even funny." The American Prospect put it in vivid terms: "In a time when too few tell it like it is...[Krugman] has taken on the battle of our time."Built from Paul Krugman's influential Op-Ed columns for the New York Times, this book galvanized the reading public. With wit, passion, and a unique ability to explain complex issues in plain English, Krugman describes how the nation has been misled by a dishonest administration.In this long-awaited work containing Krugman's most influential columns along with new commentary, he chronicles how the boom economy unraveled: how exuberance gave way to pessimism, how the age of corporate heroes gave way to corporate scandals, how fiscal responsibility collapsed. From his account of the secret history of the California energy crisis to his devastating dissections of dishonesty in the Bush administration, from the war in Iraq to the looting of California to the false pretenses used to sell an economic policy that benefits only a small elite, Krugman tells the uncomfortable truth like no one else. And he gives us the road map we will need to follow if we are to get the country back on track.The paperback edition features a new introduction as well as new writings.… (mer)

This is a collection of Paul Krugman's Op-Ed articles he wrote for The New York Times during Bush's first term. Though it is somewhat outdated, it is still interesting to read about predictions of an economic collapse. Perhaps I was too young to understand this market ten years ago, but I never suspected that we would have this real estate bubble and bust. I'd like to recommend this book to one of my ex-boyfriends who thought I was immature to not buy a house and "invest" more in the stock market. ( )

Princeton Univ Professor and NY Times columnist goes on the attack to expose the incompetence and wickness of the Bush Administration as being responsible for the 2008 economic meltdown. Must have for the economics library. ( )

No need to read this book front to back, and some of it is outdated now, but its a nice collection of columns from a sensible voice. ( )

Ineficacia y deshonestidad: Estados Unidos ante el siglo XXI: Desde los secretos entresijos de la crisis energética de California hasta la devastadora disección de la deshonestidad sobre la que se asienta la administración de George Bush.
Paul Krugman, uno de los economistas más respetados del mundo, representa la voz de la verdad en un escenario político lleno de mentiras y de injusticias calculadas... ( )

This is a collection of columns written in the past three years by a world famous economists. It's a period we recognise as a turning-point in the world of business and American politics. Events such as the dotcom boom and bust, corporate scandals, the election of George Bush, 9/11 and wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, have conspired to turn Paul Krugman into the most prominent and scathing of President Bush's critics
