Fault Lines: How Hidden Fractures Still Threaten the World Economy

Princeton University Press, 2010
Saving Capitalism From the Politicians
In his previous book, Raghuram Rajan wanted to save capitalism from the capitalists. As he and his coauthor described, market forces can be annihilated by those bent on rent seeking and monopoly power. A few years after this first book, and in the midst of a world financial crisis, there is still ample proof that capitalists hold predatory views on capitalism, and that they want to hijack the ...

PORTAL (Portal Chronicles)
64 reviews, 2010
Amazing !
I'm a guy and I'm a teenager, usually I don't buy Sci-Fi books but this one was only 0.99 so I brought it. I think it was one of the best decisions I have made in my life. This book was so good. It was romantic but it also had the right amount of science fiction I wanted. I'll recommend it to many of my friends.

The Science section is extensive, and very helpful as it is bursting with strategies. The practice tests provided in the book are of moderate difficulty. I recommend this resource to any student who wants to be prepared for all 5 test sections ...

Princeton University Press, 2009
Analyzing the Commonalities in Causes and Consequences of Centuries of Financial Crises.
"This Time Is Different" presents a quantitative history of financial crises -debt crises, bank crises, currency crises, inflation crises- with an eye to commonalities in the run-ups and aftermaths of these crises. Of course the authors' point is the reverse of the book's title: this time is never different. Economists Carmen M. Reinhart and Kenneth B. Rogoff demonstrate that financial crises ...

the only book you'll need
After purchasing muliple books, I found that this was clearly the ONLY book I needed. This book is somehow laid out perfectly- meaning, just as I was wondering about something, it seemed to be in the very next chapter. Clear and easy to understand, I felt the authors did not speak down to the reader, rather reassured me that none of my concerns are silly. They had a great way of keeping me CALM ...

The Girl trilogy comes to a satisfying conclusion!
Nancy in Seattle, WA : This has been a very satifying series. My great regret is that Stieg Larsson will not be writing any further tales of government corruption and malfeasence.

Princeton/Kaplan combination
Requiring additional prep in mathematics, I followed the advice of previous users of The Princeton Review's, 'Cracking the GRE, 2010' in combination with Kaplan's 'GRE Exam Math Workbook, Seventh Edition'. 'Cracking the GRE, 2010' was a great comprehensive prep, covering not only the effective techniques to utilize when taking the exam but a great (re)primer for the quantitative section. After ...

The book started a little slowly for me, but as the story unfolded it was clear why it was "slow" at first. It is a fantastic book that makes one appreciate our brave soldiers even more.

Every Beginner Should Own This
I first grabbed this book as a complete amateur who only knew that taking a picture required me to click a button. Kelby's writing style and easy going nature made it easy for me to understand what he was talking about and enjoy reading his instructions. I'm not very technical when it comes to photography so I was thankful that he made it possible for me to understand and execute his tips. I ...

Amazing
This is an amazing book. I would highly recommend it to anyone interested in knowing how to develop skill. I'm a musician and its concepts and examples are helping me to speed up my learning. This book talks about skill in general, so no matter what you do, if you want to get better, this book is a must read. The only complain I have is that the book is written in informal English. But maybe ...

Learned A Lot
I don't recall learning much about the Pacific War in WW II when I was in school. I'd heard of Guadalcanal, Iwo Jima, and Okinawa, but didn't know a lot of detail. I don't recall every hearing anything about Cape Gloucester or Peleliu, etc. I have found this book to be very interesting and enlightening. I like the format of following particular men simultaneously instead of telling the ...
