The Age Of Turbulence is Alan Greenspan’s incomparable reckoning with the contemporary financial world, channeled through his own experiences working in the command room of the global economy longer and with greater effect than any other single living figure. Following the arc of his remarkable life’s journey through his more than eighteen-year tenure as chairman of the Federal Reserve Board to the present, in the second half of The Age of Turbulence Dr. Greenspan embarks on a magnificent tour d’horizon of the global economy. The distillation of a life’s worth of wisdom and insight into an elegant expression of a coherent worldview, The Age of Turbulence will stand as Alan Greenspan’s personal and intellectual legacy.

This was an easy reading excellent book! The first half is an autobiography of a man always in the news.(He played the saxophone professionally in the big band era.) The second half is a primer of International Economics. In it Greenspan details foreign economies and how they got to where they are today. He also gives some interesting views of our past presidents and foreign heads of state spanning 25 years from a very personal level. It was fascinating!
