'A splendid book by authors who long ago detected Germany's fragility - and aimed at readers who take no pleasure in the sight of its precipitous decline' Yanis Varoufakis'The best polemic yet . the authors prosecute their case with vigour and a terrific eye for detail' Oliver Moody, The Times Book of the WeekThe compelling story of Germany's decline - where it all went wrong and how it could bounce back.For many years, the post-war recovery of Germany was an inspirational story.
