“This book chronicles the life of Alan Greenspan and how his background and philosophy brought him into being the former chairman of the US Federal Reserve. The book provides interesting perspective from a man who proclaims to distance himself from politics but is in fact very much involved in them. It is a biography, so it is probably very accurate and its an enjoyable read. My only criticism is that anyone expecting to find a review of economic theory as applied through the experiences of Mr. Greenspan, will not find it. The book is a narrative rather than an academic piece.”
