Prominent economists reconsider the fundamentals of economic policy for a post-crisis world.

In 2011, the International Monetary Fund invited prominent economists and economic policymakers to consider the brave new world of the post-crisis global economy. The result is a book that captures the state of macroeconomic thinking at a transformational moment.

The crisis and the weak recovery that has followed raise fundamental questions concerning macroeconomics and economic policy. These top economists discuss future directions for monetary policy, fiscal policy, financial regulation, capital-account management, growth strategies, the international monetary system, and the economic models that should underpin thinking about critical policy choices.

Lovecraft is your typical government genetically altered kind of dude, no big deal. But one day, in his brother Poe''s penthouse, while exuberantly celebrating, that all changed. His activities introduce and infuse his system with hypernites, an advanced version of what we would know as nanites. They have fused with his system on every level, right down to the quantum existence. Needless to say, this makes him all but godlike in stature. And like giving a monkey a lit torch, he immediately sets to burning himself as well as those around him. (Good times!)

And so, in a whirlwind of action, adventure, tears, and chuckles, he is thrown headfirst into the multiverse. He meets some of his counterparts in parallel worlds, mostly to both of their dismay. (Not all alternate worlds are ruled by humans.) He also travels dimensions that should not only never be traveled but are probably best not even mentioned--all in hopes of stopping an ancient plot to undo all that has been created and the ancient enemy that is orchestrating it. So, if you''re looking for a story that puts the fun back into the apocalypse and is full of twists and turns, well, my friends, then Entangled is the surprise you''ve been waiting to love!
