Recession by Tyler Goodspeed

This book’s full title is Recession: The Real Reasons Economies Shrink and What to do About it. I quite enjoyed this book. So many people today believe in cycles. Tyler Goodspeed does not. He thinks that recessions are the results of shocks to the economy. He looks at both the US economy and the UK economy over time. Tyler Goodspeed shows a lot of data in this book. I really enjoyed reading this book.

There is a really good review of this book at Works in Progress by Mark Koyama. There is another interesting review by Joel Kotkin on Quillette.

Tyler Goodspeed discusses his book in an interview at Cato Institute. There is a discussion and presentation by Tyler Goodspeed at the Hoover Institution. This is a long but very interesting discussion.

An index of the books I have reviewed are on my website at Books. I have three blogs. The first talks only about specific stocks and is called Investment Talk . The second one contains information on mostly investing and is called Investing Economics Mostly. My last blog is for my book reviews and it is called Non-Fiction Mostly. Follow me on Twitter.
