Aditya Chakrabortty, Guardian lead economics writer

'Yanis is one of the best, brightest and most innovative economists on the planet.'

'Clearly and strongly written, with logical organization building towards simple conclusions, the book is an easy yet rewarding read ... perhaps should become the standard way we think about the nature of our increasingly dysfunctional world economy.'
Joel Campbell, International Affairs

'In the most comprehensive guide to the contemporary economic crisis yet written, Yanis Varoufakis traces out the path from post-war US economic supremacy to the current predicament.'
Gary Dymski, University of California, Riverside
