Not for nothing do her initials also stand for "Central Bank." For nearly two decades, Caroline Baum has produced incisive commentary on central bank policy, the ebbs and flows of the economy, and how they influence the bond market.

Acknowledgments.
Introduction.
1 Ye of Little Faith.
Why the Federal Reserve gets so much attention, yet so little credit, for
the outcomes it effects.
2 The Bubble, or This Time Really Is Different!
Like terminally ill patients, the late 1990s bubble in technology and
Internet stocks passed through the five stages of dying: denial, anger,
bargaining, depression, acceptance. It didn't turn out any better for the
market.
3 Still Nonsense After All These Years.
Driving a stake through the heart of popular delusions: Why acts of God
aren't good for growth, costs don't push up inflation, and demand in the
economy isn't finite.
4 Myths Under the Microscope.
Repeating something often enough doesn't make it true. You'd never know it
from the misconceptions that survive about tax cuts, trade, and liquidity
traps.
5 First Principles.
How the Pilgrims learned about the value of incentives, and how backyard
birding sheds light on the law of supply and demand.
6 Understanding the Yield Curve.
One rate is set by the central bank, the other by the market. The message
couldn't be simpler, which is probably why most economists ignore it.
7 The "Political" Economy.
What happens when the heavy hand of government tries to intrude on the
invisible hand of the market.
8 Sir Alan.
To some, he's a man for all seasons, a knight for all ages. To others, he's
the emperor with no clothes. His day job is chairman of the Federal Reserve
Board.
9 What Would We Do Without a Dollar Policy?
How an insipid slogan morphed into a policy, and why we are stuck with it.
10 Off the Charts.
Sexagenarians bracket the big bull market in bonds, while technical traders
are blindsided by the canoe over the waterfall.
11 Odd Ducks.
It's a challenge to ring out the year on a creative note, but sniffing out
a shaggy dog story from Petsmart is a slam dunk.
12 Oil Things to Oil People.
We can't live without it, but we don't seem to understand it: Why the Fed
can't sign over monetary policy to OPEC.
13 Rewriting History.
Politicians never let the facts stand between them and a little historical
revisionism.
14 Men in Black.
Who are the Plunge Protection Team, and what are they doing in the
financial markets?
15 No One Else Would Write About This.
Why automated phone menus and other productivity-enhancing devices are a
headache for the consumer and an unmeasured form of inflation.
16 Love Affair.
Why bonds like to hook up and even fall in love.
17 Bumbling Bureaucrats.
How an international lending agency reinvented itself as an überadviser
once it had outlived its purpose.
18 The 2004 Election.
Why a presidential candidate has to run as somebody, not as
anybody-but-his-opponent.
19 Readers Write Back at You.
Readers send their unedited thoughts into cyberspace, never expecting
anyone to read them or reply.
Index.
