Description
Book SynopsisCan Europe prosper without the euro?
Trade Review"Much more than a demolition job. These chapters are full of constructive proposals - a glimpse of what the ‘rescues’ would have looked like had the troika, perish the thought, hired their critic Stiglitz to design them." -- Marin Sandbu - Financial Times
"[Stiglitz] is surely right. Without a radical overhaul of its workings, the euro seems all but certain to fail." -- The Economist
"Terrific and clarifying." -- Peter Goodman - The New York Times
"Many of Mr. Stiglitz’s most damning observations are on target." -- Wall Street Journal
"The euro is a modern tragedy.…As its embarrassments have mounted, its supporters club has teemed with political romantics and Europhile journalists. Stiglitz’s message to such people is that they are inadvertently destroying what they most cherish." -- Paul Collier - Times Literary Supplement
"A cogent and urgent argument of compelling interest to economists and policymakers." -- Kirkus Reviews
