Rezensionen
"Posterity may remember The Dollar Crisis as a seminal book in the field of 21st century economics. Indeed, rarely has a book offered such a grim yet, well argued view of the current economic situation facing the world." -- Steven Irvine, FinanceAsia Duncan writes like a man who's already seen tomorrow. " -- James Grant, Grant's Interest Rate Observer

"I held a class for about 150 people on the book entitled "The Dollar Crisis," authored by Richard Duncan. If you want to better understand why the real estate bubble bust and the crash of the dollar will probably lead to a prolonged recession, you may want to read this book sooner rather than later. In a nutshell, we really do not have a real estate bubble... the world is in a currency bubble. In other words, the governments of the world have printed too much "funny" money and cash will soon turn to trash. Even if you are not in real estate or are saving dollars, you may want to read this book to find out what you need to invest in now, before the bubble bursts. If you are in stocks and mutual funds, you definitely want to read this book." -- Robert Kiyosaki, author of Rich Dad, Poor Dad

"Richard Duncan crisply explains why payback time for years of credit excesses, payments imbalances and securitized sub-par lending is imminent. Mr Greenspan, your time is up. " --Philip Bowring, International Herald Tribune

Richard Duncan's excellent book... we cannot recommend it enough." -- Bill Bonner, The Daily Reckoning

"Richard Duncan... is one of the brightest financial analysts I know. Richard is the author of one of my favorite books called The Dollar Crisis: Causes, Consequences, Cures." -- John Mauldin, Thoughts from the Frontline

"For a preview of how it might play out, consult Richard Duncan's recently revised book, The Dollar Crisis: Causes, Consequences, Cures. Just try to sleep after digesting its thesis that the world's biggest economy is looking like a huge and growing Ponzi scheme." --William Pesek Jr., International Herald Tribune
