Title: Meltdown
First published: 2000
Description: "In Meltdown, Mark L. Clifford and Pete Engardio, journalists at Business Week and experienced observers of Asia's remarkable rise and fall, tell a story of financial arrogance and greed, of warning signs ignored and great economic potential squandered."--BOOK JACKET.

"Drawing on interviews with the region's leading politicians, industrialists, and technocrats, the authors root out the reasoning behind bizarre financial gambles, peek behind the facades of corrupt authoritarian political systems, and trace the many threads of blunder and avarice that led inevitably to Asia's day of reckoning."--BOOK JACKET.

"Clifford and Engardio then set forth a master plan for revitalized and sustainable economic growth in the far East that could make the oft-predicted "Pacific Century" a reality at last."--BOOK JACKET.
