Bear Trap, The Fall of Bear Stearns and the Panic of 2008
Bamber says BEAR TRAP is not an exposé, not a tell-all tale. Instead, he says it's a book about the human drama of watching a venerable global institution's untimely collapse. Released on the day Lehman Brothers declared bankruptcy, BEAR TRAP rocketed to the near top of the bestseller lists as the country held its breath waiting for the Panic and "Great Recession" that followed. "This (book) just tells the story from someone who's there. It takes the reader and puts them into my seat. We all know how this ended, but (this book) is really all about the journey there.'" --Anthony Cronin, Business Editor, The Day's Business Bear, Stearns & Co., a storied Wall Street firm with a maverick rep...

The Crime of Our Time
Schechter goes right for the jugular in this rich and informative analysis of the financial crisis and its roots. Not errors, accident, market uncertainties, and so on, but crime; major and serious crime. A harsh judgment, but it's not easy to dismiss the case that he constructs. - Noam Chomsky Veteran journalist Danny Schechter investigates a complex web of fraud and crime that he shows played a major - if largely unreported - role in bringing the economy down. His four-year investigation focuses on three interconnected cesspools of corruption; what the FBI calls an epidemic of mortgage fraud, predatory and deceptive securitization by Wall Street, and insurance scams.
