A review of 'Whoops'

This reviewer,  in The Nation, of John Lanchester's Whoops (retitled 'IOU' for the US market, but with the same subtitle, Why Everyone Owes Everyone and No One
Can Pay
) seems to have enjoyed reading it but hopes for an unhappier ending for capitalism.

Whether you're a Marxist or not, I recommend the book – it was reviewed on this blog. Apart from anything else, it explains complex derivatives in straightforward terms, a public service.
