An engaging and optimistic analysis of the recent financial crisis that offers wide-ranging practical solutions grounded in an underlying philosophy of fairness The suddenness and depth of the recession has raised questions about the workability of capitalism not seen since the 1930s. One of the constraints on recovery is the growing belief that if the old model did not work and yet there is no new one to offer. This book sets out to provide one, arguing that reconstructing a bust financial system is not just a technical question—it cannot be done without a wholescale revision of the wider system and values on which it is based, and fairness must be placed at the heart of the new capitalism if society is to recover its values. Will Hutton's new book musters brilliant, convincing arguments which will lend favor on both right and left.
