September 2007 Hot Books: Alan Greenspan's The Age of Turbulences: Adventures in a New World

This month, there is a series of good books that will be coming out. Among them, Mr. Greenspan's book, "The Age of Turbulence: Adventures in a New World" is sure to be a bestseller as soon it comes out tomorrow morning. In it, Greenspan criticizes the Bush Administration for not responsibly handling the nation's spending and racking up big budget deficits. Mr. Greenspan who has served more than 5 presidents before retiring last year and was replaced by Bernanke did not mince his words. He is free to say and write whatever he wants to. "Greenspan takes his own party to task for forsaking conservative principles that favor small government. "My biggest frustration remained the president's unwillingness to wield his veto against out-of-control spending," Greenspan wrote.


So far, critics are saying that it is one of his best books. It will stand as his legacy. "The Age of Turbulence is Alan Greenspan's incomparable reckoning with the nature of this new world - how we got here, what we're living through, and what lies over the horizon, for good and for ill-channeled through his own experiences working in the command room of the global economy for longer and with greater effect than any other single living figure."


Another book you may have heard so many things about is "Eat, Pray, Love" by Elizabeth Gilbert. It is a book about her search for good foods in Italy, spiritual connection or renewal in India and love in Bali where she met her future husband, a Brasilian businessman who swore he would never marry again. But in order to live with Elizabeth in the US, he had to marry her. That was the catch.

Another book I am reading is "If I Did It: The Confessions of a Killer" written by O J Simpson, but acquired and published by the friends of Fred Goldman. Lo and behold, Simpson is back in the news this weekend. He is arrested by armed robbery in Las Vegas over some memorabilia at Palace Station.
