E-raamat: New Lombard Street: How the Fed Became the Dealer of Last Resort

"A well-written, scholarly dissection that should be required reading for all graduate courses (and perhaps some advanced undergraduate) in macroeconomics or monetary economics." * Choice * "With lucid precision, Mehrling traces the history of how Fed policy makers became biased toward 'excessive elasticity'. . . . Mehrling saves the best for the end, where he describes the Fed's battle to save the system with an alphabet soup of lending programs."---James Pressley, Bloomberg News "An important book about the new Fed."---Tyler Cowen, Marginal Revolution "In The New Lombard Street, Perry Mehrling . . . provides a lucid account of how the system worked when it was workingand of the growing role assumed by the Fed in an era of global economic volatility and 'credit-fueled bubbles.'"---Glenn C. Altschuler, Tulsa World "[ A] fantastic book."---Rortybomb, Mike Konczal blog "Important. . . . Mehrling's new book tries to do just what Bagehot did: to give an account both of how and why the Fed acted when it reinvented the rules in the middle of a financial crisis, and of what the implications for future monetary policy will be."---Harold James, Central Banking Journal "This is an excellent and accessible analysis for anyone wishing to understand the origins of the financial crisis and how the Fed came to respond as it did."---Larry Hatheway, Business Economist "The book can be read as an important contribution in the ongoing debate on the future of central banks. In terms of monetary policy thinking, this book is another contribution to the increasing awareness that central banks, perhaps lured by seeming success of inflation targeting, in the years before 2008 did not manage to strike the right balance between monetary and financial stability."---Lars Fredrik Ųksendal, Enterprise & Society
