Freefall: Free Markets And The Sinking Of The Global Economy by Joseph Stiglitz
[…] the global warming agenda and his desire to see large transfers of wealth from the first world to the developing world. Yet despite this authoritarian caste of mind, he still fancies himself to be a pro-markets man. One last example of Stiglitz’s divorce from reality. He is still banging the tired old comparative advantage […]
Going South: why Britain will have a third world economy by 2014 by Larry Elliott and Dan Atkinson

Operation Chiffon by Peter Taylor
[PDF file]: […] before ‘Robert’ fesses up and admits he’d lied and was the right man. The way this is framed in the book paints a picture, to my cynical mind, of Taylor being distinctly naïve: Some years ago my agent, Annabel Merullo of Peters Fraser and Dunlop, said it was time I wrote another book.

South of the border
[PDF file]: […] the February 2000 press release, mentioned above. The old mantra, ‘If you stick to the truth you won’t have to remember whatever lie you’ve told’ comes to mind. 9 have not done. My disagreement with him is that I don’t believe he could possibly now remember an unredacted name on an MI6 intelligence document […]
