The Storm

The World Economic Crisis and What It Means

Vincent Cable

In his number 1 bestseller, Vince Cable, 'the sage of the credit crunch' (Daily Telegraph) explains how we got in to this mess and what it means.

In this urgent and timely book, Vince Cable explains the causes of the world economic crisis and how we should respond to it. He shows that although the downturn is global, the complacency of the British government towards the huge ‘bubble’ in property prices and high levels of personal debt, combined with increasingly exotic trading within the financial markets, has left Britain badly exposed.

This paperback editon has been fully revised and updated to include Vince Cable’s latest assessment of the recession.
