Confessions of an Economic Hit Man - John Perkins

I read this in October of last year in a book club. I thought the book was great. One of those books that make you see things differently in the world around you. It is sad learning about the greediness that drives so much of human misery. The murder of the Panamanian president was really painful to read.
