Des Moines Public Library business book pick:
“How Countries Go Broke,” by Ray Dalio

Why you should read it:
 Ray Dalio, bestselling author of “Principles,” offers a clear, urgent explanation of the “Big Debt Cycle” and how it shapes global economies. Drawing from decades of research and past crises, Dalio outlines why rising government debt poses serious risks and what it could mean for the United States and other major nations. He connects debt trends to broader forces like politics, technology and climate. This timely book helps readers understand where the world economy stands today and what solutions may help avoid future collapse.
