1. Too Big To Fail
This book provides a comprehensive account of the 2008 financial crisis, focusing on the events and decisions that led to the near-collapse of the global financial system. It delves into the intricate world of Wall Street and the key figures involved, from CEOs of major banks to government officials, offering a detailed behind-the-scenes look at the high-stakes negotiations and the blend of arrogance, greed, and desperation that fueled the crisis. Through exhaustive reporting, the narrative explores how the failure of one institution threatened to bring down the entire financial system, leading to controversial bailouts and sparking debates on moral hazard, regulation, and the concept of institutions being "too big to fail."
