The book is a must read for everyone and anyone in business, as it analyses rational responses and systemic flaws, and stays away form a witch hunt. It gives you a good understanding of international business, as well as the underlying forces and takes your mind to the big picture, teaching you to look at any situation from afar.

It is common to blame the big businesses for any and every financial crisis that takes place; whenever you go through one, the blame always goes to the big corpo...

I purchased this book almost close to a time when Raghuram Rajan has become the RBI governor. His research brings out certain key aspects:

(1) US economy behaved like a developing country (where sops and subsidies tend to take more importance) prior to 2007 in promising a house guarantee to everyone even when many of the people had sub-prime credit rating (The author brings out nice examples like a 70 year old woman being given housing loan in US even when her Income field was "Nil" in the a...

This is a great piece of literature on the financial crisis. This man is a genius. Very lucid writing and clear concepts. You may have to use the wikipedia with the book, but it will totally worth it.

I bought ' Fault Lines: How Hidden Fractures Still Threaten the World Economy' upon my daughter's request (she is a post graduate student of Economics), but I too was interested in getting an idea of the book, because of the author's star reputation.

I greatly valued the chapter on India (as far as I can recall, it's called India: what lies ahead) as one of the best summing up of the socio economic situation of India at present. I found it illuminating and quite brilliant. Many of the things...

I have been follwing Raghuram Rajan for quite some time now. His papers, speeches, books inspire and tell so much about market and economy. Being one of the handful economists in the world to predict the 2008 economic slow down - This book talks a lot about it.

A must read for every person who knows about market, has interest in economy and is curious to understand the reasons behind the fallout. Even if you are not a finance graduate, this book still gives a lot of room and flexibility to ...

There are many books which attempt to explain how the world got into its current economic mess. This is one of the better ones, more so as it touches on all aspects including soft issues which most economists do not pay attention to.
It is not very easy reading, but if you make an effort you will be rewarded. The last chapter about India is very perceptive.

Rajan provides a flawless diagnosis of the financial crisis that shook the American economy and the contagion that rocked the world. Unlike many analysts who indulge only in a theoretical analyses, he suggests a strategy to prevent such a crisis in the future. His prescription appears plausible, "doable". Most of the book relates to the USA. However, there seem to be very little of his prescription happening on the ground. Even the universal health insurance seems to be foundering.
The an...

Its like a cinema hero entering into the scene and corrects every mess around. But this time its the real hero - Raghuram Rajan at its best to protect the ailing economy with his foresightedness, experience and superb research right from page 1. This book is a warning bell for those who think the bad days for the world economy is over - if you want to be the next real life hero - read on to find out what lies beneath (the economy off course). Simply awesome book from a brilliant man.

This is by far the best book on global financial crisis I have read – including the ones written by Nobel laureates such as Stiglitz and Krugman. The book is comprehensive in coverage and masterful in its treatment of various issues that bedevil economic policy and finance globally. Dr Rajan has handled a multitude of themes and sub-themes in the book, each logically woven with the other, effortlessly gliding the reader from one topic to another.
