After the Music Stopped: The Financial Crisis, the Response, and the Work Ahead-当音乐停止之后

作者：Alan S. Blinder

书名：After the Music Stopped: The Financial Crisis, the Response, and the Work Ahead《当音乐停止之后:金融危机、应对策略与未来的世界》

中文简介：2007年金融危机后的巨大余波，或者“信贷紧缩”，展现了将全球政府与商业捆绑在一起的丝线是何等脆弱而又错综复杂。这本书解释了很多像“量化宽松”这样复杂且能影响全世界的金融趋势，却不要求读者变成经济或历史方面的教授。

英文简介：With bracing clarity, Blinder shows us how the U.S. financial system, which had grown far too complex for its own good-and too unregulated for the public good-experienced a perfect storm beginning in 2007. When America's financial structure crumbled, the damage proved to be not only deep, but wide. It took the crisis for the world to discover, to its horror, just how truly interconnected-and fragile-the global financial system is. The second part of the story explains how American and international government intervention kept us from a total meltdown. Many of the U.S. government's actions, particularly the Fed's, were previously unimaginable. And to an amazing-and certainly misunderstood-extent, they worked. The worst did not happen. Blinder offers clear-eyed answers to the questions still before us, even if some of the choices ahead are as divisive as they are unavoidable. After the Music Stopped is an essential history that we cannot afford to forget, because one thing history teaches is that it will happen here again.
