Behind the News: Global Financial Crisis

Description

Go behind the headlines to explore the wider background of news stories that are making a major impact across the world. In Global Financial Crisis, we look at how this situation arose, what was done about it and explore whether the measures worked. The books examines whether the current economic system makes sense, and whether it is fair. Is it sustainable in the future or are more crashes on the way? In a globalised economy, these questions affect everyone on the planet.

The author, Philip Steele, is an experienced writer of non-fiction for young people, on topics ranging from history to current affairs.
