5.0 out of 5 stars A warning, Jan 6 2011
This review is from: The Great Crash 1929 (Paperback)
Galbraith wrote this book as a warning. People have to understand who a bubble can be created. And bubbles are pretty in every country and in every moment of the capitalism.

This was just the biggest bubble. I recommand to read this book with other about bubbles.

For someone who want to understand the real life during the epoch of the great terror, I recommand this book. It's not complicated, but sometime it's hard to read. There are sad moments and sad scenes...

4.0 out of 5 stars Amazing, Jan 6 2011
Excellent book. In my opinion, this book has a problem with the structure (because the stories are not put in chronological order). It's why, after finishing the book, I started to read again some pages.

5.0 out of 5 stars My favorite watch, Oct 15 2010
It's my favorite watch. I buy two a year. Not expensive, sport, simply, and very light (it doesn't weigh too much, because it is in plastic). When I lose one, I'm not worried: it's cheap, but it works very well.
