Inside job : the financiers who pulled off the heist of the century

Based on explosive interviews conducted personally by award-winning filmmaker Charles Ferguson, as well as newly released court documents and information buried in archives, Inside Job traces in gripping detail how the financial industry and its enablers went rogue.

Ferguson shows how three decades of deregulation created a "predator nation" and invited the crisis, particularly as key players cycled through positions of power in government, "independent" academia, and big-ticket finance.

With clarity, toughness, and stunning freshness, he delivers an unrivalled accounting of how the new economic oligarchy have wrested control of our politics - and our prospects for eventual recovery.
