The Great Unraveling

The Great Unraveling may scare & depress but this must read will help you survive and prosper.


Barry H. Minkin predicted the current global recession in his 2003 address to the World Future Society (www.minkinaffiliates.com). He now anticipates a global depression. The world economy is beyond recovery and can no longer be rebooted.


Minkin’s accurate predictions prompted "Critical Factors" to name him 'a candidate for guru of the decade'. He was a guest on Larry King Live and featured in other international media.


"Unraveling" first provides a concise narrative describing how we got here, how much worse it will get, and why economists and other pundits don't get it. Minkin then uses his 40 years of real world experience as a global management consultant including 10 years with Stanford Research Institute to guide the reader past anger to insightful actions and policies that can protect our investments, businesses, jobs, society and country.
