“The financial sector is a vital component of the USeconomic machinery. The Federal Reserve works within this sector topromote its congressional mandates of maximum employment and lowinflation. Unfortunately the contribution of the financial systemto the economy’s performance is not well understood. Studentsof standard college courses on money banking and monetary policyoften find that the textbooks have not kept pace with the evolutionof the financial sector including the rise of securitized financeand the Federal Reserve’s evolving monetary operations. TomSimpson’s book represents a huge step forward in this regard.His comprehensive exposition of the essential parts of thefinancial system and modern explanation of how the Federal Reservesupports the economy gives readers a much better understanding ofthe US financial system and the Federal Reserve.”
