Steve had a unique way of interviewing that was less an interview than a conversationdescribing where he wanted to go and waiting to see if the other person would jump in to suggest how he or she could make a contribution to that effort. Also, he wasn't much interested in a person's resume as in what he thought they would be able to bring to the team: will this person be so committed to the vision that they will provide their own motivation? Steve wanted people who would have allegiance to the captain and to his/her shipmates, the ability to come up with original, unique ways to approach a problem, and be self-guided with a strong sense of direction.Show book

The current global financial crisis carries a "made in America" label. In this forthright and incisive book, Nobel Laureate Joseph E. Stiglitz explains how America exported bad economics, bad policies, and bad behavior to the rest of the world, only to cobble together a haphazard and ineffective response when the markets finally seized up. Drawing on his academic expertise, his years spent shaping policy in the Clinton administration and at the World Bank, and his more recent role as head of a UN commission charged with reforming the global financial system, Stiglitz outlines a way forward, building on ideas that he has championed his entire career: restoring the balance between markets and government, addressing the inequalities of the global financial system, and demanding more good ideas (and less ideology) from economists.Freefall is an instant classic, combining an enthralling whodunit account of the current crisis with a bracing discussion of the broader economic issues at stake.Show book
