Summary: Lewis offers a scathing assessment of fiscal blunders in foreign lands--and details how economic repercussions are sure to be felt on American soil. Financial bubbles grew--and burst--not only in the U.S. but in countries as diverse as Iceland, Germany, and Greece. Mixing humor with prescient insight, Lewis depicts a precarious situation that demands listeners' attention.
