The Fifth Risk: by Michael Lewis | Conversation Starters
Many of the people who are working in government are highly educated, including scientists and management experts. They are the ones dealing with crucial issues such as climate change and cancer. Author Michael Lewis tells stories of how departments are being mismanaged by inept Trump appointees who are unprepared to take over. The appointees are inept, motivated by greed, have anti-government beliefs and are largely scientifically ignorant. What happens to a nation that is mismanaged?
The Fifth Risk is a New York Times bestseller. It is authored by Lewis who wrote the bestseller The Undoing Project. Critics laud the book for its "spellbinding, alarming analysis of the most serious threats to Americans' safety."
