'Pulls off the rare feat of making you laugh, think and feel like you happened upon a top secret dossier' GEOFF NORCOTT

'MONEYMANIA is a page-turner and a must read if you wonder why the world is so screwed up.' PATRICK ALLEY, author of VERY BAD PEOPLE

The anonymous author of TAXTOPIA takes us behind the scenes as he embarks on another part of his career, this time recruited as an economist into an industry that believes the world of money can be predicted with almost scientific accuracy. Instead, he discovers that economics has long been driven by vested interests, reckless predictions and a staggering lack of common sense.

In MONEYMANIA we find out why mortgages cost more because of a casual remark made in New Zealand in the '80s, and ask whether the Age of Austerity was due to a simple spreadsheet error. We also learn that if America behaved more like Iceland, they would have put 32,000 bankers in prison.

The Rebel Accountant strips away the complexities of economics, showing us how the profession is responsible for some of the greatest mistakes of all time - and leaves us wondering how they got away with it.

Recensioni della critica

'Pulls off the rare feat of making you laugh, think and feel like you happened upon a top secret dossier' (GEOFF NORCOTT)
'Most economists I've dealt with are foolish and dangerous. Moneymania is a page-turner which tells you why, in a language you can understand, and makes you laugh out loud while it's doing it. A must read if you wonder why the world is so screwed up.' (Patrick Alley)
'A very enjoyable read, mainly down to the affability and wry wittiness of its author. You'll find your inner Che Guevara rising to the surface pretty quickly.'
