It's the economy, stupid. Michael Lewis leads readers through five of the most violent and costly upheavals in recent financial history with trademark humor in Panic!: The Story of Modern Financial Insanity. Nobel Prize-winner Paul Krugman lays out the steps that must be taken to contain the crisis and turn around a world economy sliding into a deep recession in the updated The Return of Depression Economics and the Crisis of 2008. John R. Talbott recommends inoculating yourself against the worst of the economic upheaval in Contagion: The Financial Epidemic That is Sweeping the Global Economy... and How to Protect Yourself from It.

Punk pioneers - The Clash by The Clash
The Clash were a band like no other. Pioneers of British punk rock, their incendiary gigs, intelligent songwriting, definitive style and passionate idealism caught the spirit of the times and made them a worldwide phenomenon. Rolling Stone magazine declared London Calling one of the greatest albums of all time, their autobiographical documentary Westway to the World won a Grammy, and their music lives on, influencing emerging bands and exciting new audiences today.

This is the first official book to be created by the band. With unprecedented access to the Clash archive, this landmark publication brings together previously unseen material - including tour posters, artwork, and photos of the band at home, on stage, in the studio and on the road - with each member telling it like it was, in their own words.

Trendsetters, icons, revolutionaries: their story is steeped in mythology. Many people have an opinion about what made them who they were - this book gives the chance to read the full story, from all four band members themselves.
