Mike Clowes, Investment News ''... exceptional both because of Bogle's standing and the insights he brings.'' David Lascelles, Financial World ''When the writer is John C. Bogle, ignore the bombast and pay attention... Emboldened by the flood of scandals since the bubble burst, Bogle has written his broadest broadside yet.'' Peter Lattman, Forbes ''Mr. Bogle tells it like it is, like it was and, most important, tells what needs to be done to restore the values of faith, integrity and trust that were once hallmarks of corporate America and the financial sectors.''
