Essential history of these institutions across the world. Really appreciated that they did not present an American-centric view and did their homework to take us through the intricacies and politics of a handful of central banks globally. The challenges they articulate are incisive and so timely that I had to keep checking that this was written in 1995. Central bank leadership, heed their warnings and incorporate their suggestions. A treasure.
