Anyone who wants a graphic example of religious devotion to monetarism for its own spiritual sake and in the ranks of the IMF and the Bank of Canada -- and its relation to the disasterous NZ experiment -- should read Linda McQuaig's new book on John Crow, the Bank of Canada and the impact of the NZ experiment, *Shooting the Hippo*. It also demonstrates the hypocrisy and venality of the international financial institutions. Non-technical and easily accessible to anyone with no exposure to technical economics, ortho- or hetero-.
