Additional Praise for Too Big to Save? “Americans need to understand the fi nancial crisis shaking this country. Bob Pozen offers a great guide to inner workings gone wrong and a clear agenda for getting the system right again. Read this book and understand.” —Tom Ashbrook, Host of NPR’s On Point “Bob Pozen is among the most knowledgeable and thoughtful commentators on America’s fi nancial system today. Based on decades of practical experience and years of penetrating analysis, his book Too Big to Save? presents new ideas that should be essential reading for laymen and experts alike, especially our top policy makers.” —Jeffrey E. Garten, Juan Trippe Professor of International Finance and Trade, Yale School of Management; Former Undersecretary of Commerce, Clinton Administration “America’s fi nancial system is sorely in need of fundamental reform, and the aftermath of the recent crisis represents a historic opportunity to do something about it. Too Big To Save? is full of the kind of knowledge-based common sense that only someone with Bob Pozen’s rich background of experience in the securities industry is likely to bring to today’s debate about what to do and who should do it. The country will stand a better chance of getting these reforms right if everyone pays attention to his thinking.” —Benjamin M. Friedman, William Joseph Maier Professor of Political Economy, Harvard University; Author, The Moral Consequences of Economic Growth “There will be many books written about the fi nancial crisis of 2007–2009. But if you want to read just one, read this book. Bob Pozen’s account of what went wrong and how to prevent future crises is a tour de force, clearly written for the nonexpert and powerfully argued.” —Robert E. Litan, Vice President for Research and Policy, The Kauffman Foundation; Senior Fellow, The Brookings Institution “Bob Pozen reviews some extremely complex concepts in a straightforward, easyto- read manner for people to digest the sheer quantity of coverage about all the elements of the credit crisis. Using charts and summaries, he helps nonexperts understand what happened and gives them the tools needed to evaluate the most critical fi nancial issues.” —Peter Lynch, Former Portfolio Manager, Fidelity Magellan Fund
