On November 20, at the Miami Book Fair, CCC’s Chris Kenneally will interview Stephen Rattner, author of the just-released “Overhaul: An Insider’s Account of the Obama Administration’s Emergency Rescue of the Auto Industry,” which the New York Times calls, “required reading for public policy and law students… [recounting] an almost unprecedented government-funded restructuring that whisked [GM and Chrysler] in and out of court protection in weeks rather than the months or years common in other big bankruptcy cases.”
A year ago in Miami, Kenneally spoke with Bob Garfield, host of NPR’s “On the Media,” about his thesis that when it comes to the publishing world as know it, the end is near. “It’s a structural problem and it’s the result of the digital revolution,” he said. This week, as a Miami Book Fair warm-up, Beyond the Book re-releases that talk with Garfield about his book, “The Chaos Scenario.”
