End This Depression Now! Audiobook

" Krugman makes a very convincing argument for his "neo-Keynesian" approach to the economy. It's nice to hear economics from an economist and not from ideologues. I was impressed. "

" This excellent book is clear and concise (it helps if you love Keynes though...). It explains why the fiscal bale-out wasn't enough in the States and how the Euro and the relations in the Eurozone makes austerity inappropriate policy instruments to end the recession. Recommended to all, especially people in relevant policy departments !! "

" Fast read. Keynsian view on current economic policy "

" Really enjoyed reading this. I'm not an expert in economics and this gives very clear explanations of some of the major economic processes. To be honest, it is in line with my political views, so I am more likely to be a bit biased, but it I do find it distressing that the solution to our current financial woes is potentially so easy but the political will is not there. "

" Krugman is a very smart man, and lays out what's going on in ways that even the least economically savvy can understand. "

" I liked Krugman's assertion that instead of concentrating on how to avoid future recessions, let's concentrate on getting out of this one first. "

" If you want to understand the current economic crisis and if firing teachers and firefighters just doesn't seem like a sane solution this is your book. "

" A much different view than Wiedemer's Aftershock book. The reality is probably somewhere in the middle of their two predictions and opinions. "

" Im a big fan of Krugman, this was high-level and concise, but too often the book becomes political. Overall very readable and enjoyable. "

" Paul Krugman is perhaps the smartest person no one listens to. What's more, he doesn't lean upon his Nobel Prize, or resort to name-calling, but calmly explains the situation in terms even the layman can comprehend. "

" Absolutely essential reading for understanding the current economic crisis and how policymakers can and should take actions to fix the situation by a Nobel laureate in economics. It will fire you up! "

" Logical solutions not pursued by this illogical Congress. "

" This book has lots of economic talk, so avert your eyes if that's not your cup of tea. All in all, lots of very good ideas here, especially if you consider yourself a Keynesian. Definite good read for those interested in the cause and one (very intelligent) man's theory on how to fix it. "

" Terrific history lessons. Bold proposals. Krugman cares deeply about his fellow citizens. Quite an "Economic Evangelist." Everyone should read this book. "

" Recommended to all readers especially if with very limited economic knowledge. A #mustread if you want not just understand why we have a recession but also what our Politicians should do to fight it. Good analysis also of the European Countries problems. "

" A lot of good stuff here. Dumbed down but necessarily so. Somewhat repetitive. "

" Reading Krugman's blog and NY Times column has been an education--in analysis, courage and economics. This book pulls together his economic argument in an accessible way, even for those of us without a background in economics. "

" good overview of current economic crisis and what needs to he done. "

" If you read his blog regularly this book probably won't tell you anything you don't know, but otherwise, it's probably the best single source of information on the current crisis and how absurd the policy response has been. "

" Great overview of modern economics and how it relates to the Great Recession. Paul Krugman is a fantastic writer when it comes to economics and politics, and he makes a strong argument for fiscal stimulus and monetary policy ideas. "
