Shortlisted for the Baillie Gifford Prize for Non-Fiction (2010) and the Financial Times and Standard Chartered Business Book of the Year Award (2010).

Too Big to Fail won the New York Times bestseller list and was the basis for the HBO film "Too Big to Fail." In one of the most gripping financial narratives in decades, Andrew Ross Sorkin—a New York Times columnist and one of the country's most respected financial reporters—delivers the first definitive blow-by-blow account of the epochal economic crisis that brought the world to the brink. Through unprecedented access to the players involved, he re-creates all the drama and turmoil of these turbulent days, revealing never-before-disclosed details and recounting how, motivated as often by ego and greed as by fear and self-preservation, the most powerful men and women in finance and politics decided the fate of the world's economy.
