Most books on American finance emphasize the ways in which globalization and deregulation have promoted irresponsible speculation, excessive risk-taking and unsustainable levels of debt. This book argues that the American financial system is in fact far from a house of cards, but a proper edifice, built on foundations with their own distinctive points of strength and weakness.
