“One title that stands out for 2004 but is available now is Financial Reckoning Day by Bill Bonner and Addison Wiggin. The thesis of this book is that Western economies are heading for a deep depression and you need to act now to shelter your assets. The prediction looks wide of the mark but the book has rattled me enough to prompt further inquiry.”
