| Summary |
"In a follow-up to his bestseller The Great Reckoning, in this new book, economic expert Davidson says we are on the cusp of great change -- a breaking point -- that will have vast implications for investors and wealth managers. Despite the fact that technology and mega political forces have created the biggest and most expensive governments the world has ever seen, Davidson predicts we are entering an era of the devolution of power which will paradoxically lead to an era of economic freedom. This provocative and wide-ranging book will explain this paradox and provide a roadmap investors can use to prosper despite the coming upheavals"-- Provided by publisher. |
