Great history and explanation of the calamity we did to ourselves.

All the Devils Are Here is a well written narrative that manages to highlight the individual stories without obscuring institutional and path dependent explanations. ( )

A good look at the 2008 financial crisis and the sub-prime mortgage issue. The authors name the people who almost destroyed our economy. The details of the mortgage and banking system are so complicated and hard to understand, this book helps make sense of what was done to all of us. ( )

Is this book perfect? I am sure people smarter than me could point out problems but that wouldn't change the fact that it is a must read. It gives the scope, the magnitude and perspective of greed and willful ignorance that led to the crisis. It is truly shocking, just beyond even my tolerance for stupidity. I watched an interview with the authors and you could tell they were mad. They were upset by what they had found and I understand why now. ( )

Having been a stock broker, this book was highly interesting, and I have to say that I knew this was going to happen. ( )
