his three-decade career at the Federal Reserve Board as Deputy Director of the Division of Monetary Affairs. In that capacity, he was intimately involved in deliberations on monetary affairs and policy with members of the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Open Market Committee. Now out of the trenches and in retirement, Lindsey has written a significant and valuable addition to the literature on the Federal Reserve.” —John D. Paulus, former Chief Economist, Morgan Stanley; former Senior Financial Economist, Goldman Sachs; former Director of Research, Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis, USA “Few are as well-equipped as Lindsey to probe the inner sanctum of the Federal Reserve. This is not the standard party-line pablum produced by most Fed insiders. It offers a fair, balanced, and at times a tough and honest critique of the policies, personalities, and challenges shaping America’s most important financial institution.” —Stephen S. Roach, Senior Fellow, Jackson Institute, Yale University, USA; former Chairman, Morgan Stanley Asia “A very intriguing and thought-provoking book about the Fed’s centennial history and today’s monetary policy. Lindsey not only strongly expresses his concern that ‘quantitative easing’ endangers the Fed’s political independence of many years’ standing but also contends that a practical intellectual orientation is the crucial attribute which central bankers should possess.” —Kenzo Yamamoto, Chairman, NTT Data Institute of Management Consulting, Inc., Japan; former Executive Director, Bank of Japan
