520    "The book explains how the economic environment changed 
       throughout 10 of the most spectacular financial crises of 
       the past century. On the one hand, it shows that the lack 
       of effective regulation, relevant data, and adequate 
       understanding of the economic environment were among the 
       facilitators of the crises. On the other hand, it 
       highlights the role that ill-incentivized bankers and 
       accountants, biased politicians, euphoric investors, 
       speculators, and corrupt managers played in the evolution 
       of bubbles and crises."--From publisher description.
