Coming out of a conference held in September 2011 on the European debt crisis, this work examines policy options for resolving the euro area debt crisis. After a luncheon address by George Soros (Soros Fund Management, LLC), the conference closed with a policy simulation game. This was perhaps the most useful part of the workshop, resulting in a plan for "leveraging the capacity of the European Financial Stability Facility" through arrangements with the European Central Bank (ECB). The volume is edited by Cline (Peterson Institute for International Economics) and Wolff (Bruegel), who also wrote two chapters. Annotation 2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
