That post, along with numerous rants on the subject on CNBC, apparently led to my invitation to testify on the subject before a Congressional Subcommittee in March 2009, which I did alongside my comrade in arms, BillIsaac, former Chairman of the FDIC.
It is an angry book because BillIsaac is by no means pleased with the string of policy blunders (mark-to-market accounting, pro-cyclical regulatory regimes from FASB and the SEC, the repeal of Glass-Steagall, etc.) that led to a global financial meltdown in the fall of 2008.
