Can the euro be saved? Should it be? Nobel prize-winning economist Joseph E. Stiglitz dismantles the prevailing consensus around what ails Europe, arguing that economic stagnation is a direct result of the euro's flawed birth. He demolishes the champions of austerity and offers solutions that can rescue the continent from further devastation. Stiglitz could hardly have timed "The Euro" better. He is one of those economists with a rare ability to help readers understand complex ideas. Philip Aldrick from The Times describes it as original and hard-hitting, stating it is much more than a demolition job, with chapters full of constructive proposals. Martin Sandbu from the Financial Times calls it terrific and clarifying, while Peter Goodman from The New York Times notes its coolly analytical approach. The Economist asserts that without a radical overhaul of its workings, the euro seems all but certain to fail.
