Jesse Young's Reviews > Limitless: The Federal Reserve Takes on a New Age of Crisis

Though it can feel a little stilted and book report-y at times, "Limitless" is a very readable and compelling history of the Fed. Though the book tries to build towards the climax of the COVID-19 response, that's actually not the most compelling or informative part of the book. The book shines most brightly in chapters like that which attempt to address the allegation that the Fed's cheap money policies have driven wealth inequality (Smialek's conclusion is compelling and even-handed).
