Books on the financial crisis...

Emory University's Goizueta Business Library has witnessed more undergraduate and MBA students interested in reading books about the current financial crisis, outside of their required reading lists. "Reading the Economy: Books on the Current Financial Crisis" is a brief article in a recent issue of Knowledge@Emory that discusses this trend and highlights some recommended reading.

To locate related books in the USF catalog, search "financial crises" as a subject heading. Here are a few current titles in the USFSP library:
  • House of cards : a tale of hubris and wretched excess on Wall Street / William D. Cohan (2009).
  • Panic : the story of modern financial insanity / [edited by] Michael Lewis (2009).
  • The return of depression economics and the crisis of 2008 / Paul Krugman (2009).
  • The new paradigm for financial markets : the credit crisis of 2008 and what it means / George Soros (2008).
  • The credit crunch : housing bubbles, globalisation and the worldwide economic crisis / Graham Turner (2008).
