My copy of Barry Eichengreen's Hall of Mirrors: The Great Depression, the Great Recession, and the Uses - and Misuses - of History arrived last Saturday morning. In this book, Eichengreen draws parallels between the Great Depression and the Great Recession. He also shows how the history of the Great Depression has been used and misused in dealing with the Great Recession. Below is a video where Eichengreen is interviewed about his new book.
Michael Aldous and I had our book The CEO: The Rise and Fall of Britain's Captains of Industry published a few weeks ago.

The CEO has already been reviewed in The Sunday Times , The Observer and Financial Times .
