NOW AN HBO FILM

One of the most gripping financial stories in decades, Too Big to Faildelivers a blow-by-blow account of the epochal economic crisis that brought the world to the brink. Through unprecedented access to the players involved, Andrew Ross Sorkin re-creates all the drama and turmoil of those turbulent days, revealing never-before-disclosed details and recounting how--motivated as often by ego and greed as by fear and self-preservation--the most powerful men and women in finance and politics decided the fate of the world's economy.

This edition has been updated with a new afterword reflecting on the tenth anniversary of the crisis.
