The route of all evil

"In his fresh analysis of Ezra Pound's thought, celebrated economist Meghnad Desai separates the gold dust in Pound's economic writings from the dross of his anti-Semitic diatribes. He shows how fresh and radical Pound's economics were in the years of the Great Depression. And he traces how, as the Second World War came nearer, Pound transformed himself first of all into a self-styled guru who could end the war if only America would listen - and then into a bitter, rejected, hateful Cassandra."--BOOK JACKET.
