-Titulo Original : Keeping At It The Quest For Sound Money And Good Government
-Fabricante :
PublicAffairs
-Descripcion Original:
The extraordinary life story of the former chairman of the Federal Reserve, whose absolute integrity provides the inspiration we need as our constitutional system and political tradition are being tested to the breaking point. As chairman of the Federal Reserve (1979-1987), Paul Volcker slayed the inflation dragon that was consuming the American economy and restored the worlds faith in central bankers. That extraordinary feat was just one pivotal episode in a decades-long career serving six presidents. Told with wit, humor, and down-to-earth erudition, the narrative of Volckers career illuminates the changes that have taken place in American life, government, and the economy since World War II. He vibrantly illustrates the crises he managed alongside the worlds leading politicians, central bankers, and financiers. Yet he first found his model for competent and ethical governance in his father, the town manager of Teaneck, NJ, who instilled Volckers dedication to absolute integrity and his three verities of stable prices, sound finance, and good government. Review Paul Volcker is the greatest man I have known. He is endowed to the highest degree with what the Romans called virtus (virtue): moral courage, integrity, sagacity, prudence and devotion to the service of country. This book is more than an account of his life. It is his credo. Martin Wolf, Financial TimesIf there were a Nobel Prize for government service, Paul Volckers name would surely be on the short list...It paints an accurate personal portrait. The picture that emerges is of a man of granitic integrity, committed to what he perceives as wise policies-committed, that is, to what he calls The Verities: stable prices, sound finance, and good government...There are few people like Paul Volcker in the U.S. government today, or in business, for that matter-respected and trusted by everyone, whatever the disagreements, and motivated by public service. Charles R. Morris, The AtlanticEngaging...Keeping At It is part autobiography, part monetary history, part plea for the restoration of trust in American political institutions...Humility is one of the charms of both the man and his book. James Grant, Wall Street JournalArguably the greatest Fed chairman all time, this book is at the top of my list. Barry Ritholtz, BloombergWho is the most influential political figure alive? The Queen? Henry Kissinger? Donald Trump, Bill Gates or the Google founder Larry Page? Wrong. Its Paul Volcker. Some of you may not have heard of this 91-year-old American but it is hard to think of another living person who has had more influence on the world today. Ed Conway, The Times (UK)[a] frugal and charming autobiography is filled with illuminating stories from Volckers seven decades of public service. Richard N. Cooper, Foreign AffairsNever has a message like Paul Volckers been more important. At a time of deep divisions in this country, his courageous fight for Americas financial and economic stability--under six different U.S. presidents--provide a model that should unite us all. --President Jimmy CarterThis book is a monument erected by a man who played a key role in the world financial affairs over more than 50 years. Paul Volcker was the only one to master inflation in the early 80s. He devoted himself to public service with exceptional integrity and energy. --Jacques de Larosiere, advisor to the chairman of BNP ParibasSA, chairman of the strategic committee of Agence France Tresor, and formerdirector of the International Monetary FundPaul Volcker is an American hero who has seen more and done more to shape the world economy than anyone else over the last 50 years.
