Reviews

"This book is a must-read for anyone who cares about the future of Europe and progressive politics. Larry Elliott and Dan Atkinson correctly predicted the euro would prove a calamity. They are right today that the euro crisis is far from over. Their demand for a radical change of approach must be taken seriously – by policy makers and politicians alike" – Ed Balls, UK Shadow Chancellor from 2011 to 2015

"[The book] offers useful insight into why so many people thought the euro was a good idea in the first place" – Harvard Business Review
