One of the most well-reviewed business books on the global financial crisis of 2008-2009 is the title Too Big to Fail by Andrew Ross Sorkin.

The book is described as a"true-life financial and political thriller that goes behind the scenes of the financial crisis on Wall Street and Washington."  Andrew Ross Sorkin "vividly details the backroom deal making and secret alliances made in the rush to save the world economy from collapse".

Andrew Sorkin discusses "the process" or "how the book was created" on BookTV. 

 

The New York Times Book Review states "Sorkin's prodigious reporting and lively writing puts the reader in the room for some of the biggest-dollar conference calls in history.  It's an entertaining book, brisk book...Sorkin skillfully captures the raucous enthusiasm and riotous greed that fueled this rational irrationality."

According to The Atlantic Monthly,  "Andrew Ross Sorkin pens what may be the defintive history of the banking crisis".
