Critical Reception
- "the last chapter makes a powerful and remarkably self-deprecating point. Readers who persevere will feel rewarded." - Sebastian Mallaby, Washington Post
- "Not only can Greenspan discourse lucidly on economic matters, but he has also written the most unexpectedly charming Washington insider memoir since Katharine Graham's a decade ago" - Michael Kinsley, New York Times
- "Most people will read Greenspan's book for the shock value of his attack on Republicans. But they also will find that Greenspan's well-informed musings offer much more food for thought than the usual government official memoir." - Michael Mandel, BusinessWeek
