Secrets of the Temple: How the Federal Reserve Runs the Country William Greider

William Greider's groundbreaking bestseller reveals how the mighty and mysterious Federal Reserve operates-and manipulates and the world's economy.

This ground-breaking best-seller reveals for the first time how the mighty and mysterious Federal Reserve operates-and how it manipulated and transformed both the American economy and the world's during the last eight crucial years. Based on extensive interviews with all the major players, Secrets of the Temple takes us inside the government institution that is in some ways more secretive than the CIA and more powerful than the President or Congress.
