A relatively succinct (not easy to do) explanation of the policy choices that have lead up to the fiscal policy we have today. Thorough and palatable!

I first read “the dollar crisis” in 2006 and it gave me a new picture what was happening. I had been wondering about the phenomens around but never really could put them into order – until Richard Duncan’s book.

This is my first experience of an online course. I have read The New Depression and found it very easy to consume. Equally I have found Richard Duncan’s course both fluid and understandable. It helps to understand where the roots of our present ills were planted and how history usually holds the key to our future. I look forward to the next course.

Mr. Duncan does an extraordinary job of explaining, in layman’s terms, the fundamentals that drive the world economy as we know it today and how we got to the point we now collectively find ourselves as a society. I feel more empowered after taking this course, to filter through the daily noise the media feeds us and see what’s really going on. Highly recommended!
