Summary:Bókadómar Í umsögn gagnrýnenda kemur meðal annars eftirfarandi fram: „The book is a highly interesting read particularly for international audiences hoping to get a deeper insight not only into the causes and consequences of the collapse of the three banks, but more importantly also into the historical, political-cultural, and no less into the political-psychological background and dimension of the crisis. The chapters presenting Iceland’s economic history as well as the rise and fall of the Icelandic banks therefore present a very useful summary of the existing literature on the subject, although the interested reader could also have hoped for a more diverse selection of sources.”
