The book itself is something of an update of Martin Wolf’s “Fixing Global Finance”, which I also highly recommend.

Can It Happen Again?: Essays on Instability and Finance

Hyman Minsky
New Left EViewsNew Left EViews

Suggested reading order for Minsky: First ‘John Maynard Keynes’, then ‘Can “It” Happen Again’. Avoid ‘Stabilizing and Unstable Economy’, it’s a mess and the framework is laid out better elsewhere. For secondary reading, I’d recommend ‘The Vision of Hyman Minsky’ by @PMehrling. https://t.co/X3uONBRZhc

Re: ‘Asteroid City’: is Wes Anderson just doing bits instead of movies now? How far up ones own ass can one disappear?
