Secrets of the Temple
by William Greider
This book was the first popular look behind the curtain of the Fed, this very secretive institution. People think of the CIA as the secretive organisation, but the Fed is probably just as secretive or it certainly was at the time, in the 80s, and he shines a light on it. He also tells the story of how Paul Volcker, the chairman of the Federal Reserve at the time, really waged war on inflation.
