Economic policy set at the whim of one man.
Tariffs up one day and down the next.
Businesses bewildered, consumers alarmed.
As Donald Trump wages his trade war, what will become of a global economy dependent on close trading links?
Leading financial journalist Philip Coggan lifts the lid on Trump's economic gamble, why it's a universal threat and how we can make sense of this new 'age of chaos'. This is his clear-sighted and powerful rallying cry in defence of global trade - and why it matters for the world.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
One of the best new books on economics * Financial Times * The book is a tour de force. The arguments are very clearly and succinctly put in a way that should convince anyone of the madness of the tariff policy -- David Miles, Professor of Financial Economics at Imperial College Coggan's analysis is sharp, accessible and free from polemic - grounded in facts and, most importantly, good old economic common sense -- Tej Parikh * FT * Donald Trump and I both took economics degrees in the 1960s. This book describes the history which I learnt and Donald Trump has forgotten - or never understood. Philip Coggan's masterly exposition is easy to understand and (almost) impossible to forget -- John Kay, author of The Corporation in the Twenty-First Century This is brilliant synoptic analysis * Morning Herald * The Keynes of our age -- Patrick Maguire * The Times * A short, rapidly produced but still insightful book * Literary Review * Rather delightful * Financial Express * Coggan goes to the heart of the problem * The New World * Praise for More -- : Coggan is one of the best financial journalists of his generation -- James Kirkup * The Times * A real pleasure...Coggan tells the story with both narrative verve and acute observation -- Diana Coyle * The Economist * Vivid, lively and rich in insight...a truly amazing story -- Felix Martin * Financial Times * A majestic must-read -- Andy Haldane, former Chief Economist at the Bank of England
