I'll be honest, I'm not an economist (despite having a degree in economic and social studies) so this mostly went over my head. It's an interesting history and critique of the EU project though, and the Eurozone crisis is far from as simple as "we can't keep bailing Greece out".

I really wanted to like this book, the same as how I really want to understand international politics but I‘m just not very good at it. I don‘t think it was a bad book at all, it was very well written and I think the author is really talented, just not really for me.
