This review is from: Figuring Out the Fed: Answers to the Most Frequently Asked Questions About the Federal Reserve System (Paperback)

I bought the book to try and understand the Fed. Unfortunely the author spends so much time trying to convince you the system needs to be changed, that a lot of the workings of the Fed are simply not covered. Very incomplete.
