Critics Review
“With its interviews of key policymakers, Simon Bowmaker’s book opens wide a door into the often-obscure world of Fed policymaking.”—Robert Hetzel, author of The Federal Reserve: A New History
“A treasure trove of interviews of people who have played a notable role in shaping 21st century Federal Reserve policy.”—Kenneth Rogoff, author of Our Dollar, Your Problem: An Insider’s View of Seven Turbulent Decades of Global Finance, and the Road Ahead
“Fed Reckoning is a unique and indispensable resource for anyone who cares about central banking. The people who have done the most to shape the Federal Reserve—from the inside and outside—reflect candidly on the most important economic and institutional issues facing our economy today. The result ranges from the personal to the analytical and is essential reading for anyone trying to understand where the Fed has been and where it is headed.” —Jason Furman, Harvard University
