Revue de presse

A very good history of economic thought (Economist)

How Markets Fail offers a brilliant intellectual framework . . . fine work (New York Times)

An essential, grittily intellectual, yet compelling guide to the financial debacle of 2009 (Geordie Greig, Evening Standard)

A powerful argument . . . Cassidy makes a compelling case that a return to hands-off economics would be a disaster (BusinessWeek)

This book is a well constructed, thoughtful and cogent account of how capitalism evolved to its current form (Telegraph Books of the Year recommendation)

John Cassidy ... describe[s] that mix of insight and madness that brought the world's system to its knees (FT, Book of the Year recommendation)

Anyone who enjoys a good read can safely embark on this tour with Cassidy as their guide . . . Like his colleague Malcolm Gladwell [at the New Yorker], Cassidy is able to lead us with beguiling lucidity through unfamiliar territory (New Statesman)
