Further Helps, Index. -- Written in 1979, Casey presents a healthy argument that our economy is going to fail, but he was about 30 years off. He's still in the media as this post was written and he's still calling for the collapse of Western Civilization. He's arguments are actually a lot stronger now, but in our complex world economy it's becoming more and more futile to time the next "Depression." One thing we must always remember is that the "market" is not "logical," and very often will move 180 degrees from common sense. Price is king and discounts everything else. 285 Pages, 1st Printing, Inscribed by Author, Collectible.
