Confessions of an Economic Hit Man by John Perkins
This is a purportedly true story of a business man/economist who is influenced and molded and handled by a shadowy world of international finance and quasi-governmental operatives. It is a confession, but a weak, incomplete one. His descriptions of world events are interesting. His analysis of world debt and manipulation of small countries is surely true. But the shadowy world influencing him behind the scenes, encouraging, threatening, bribing ... is it real or his imagination? I think the real sins are left unconfessed and he is left mostly confessing the sins of others. Large corporations, Bush - easy marks all.
