Keeping On Message

Finally a business book that manages to keep a long run perspective without losing touch with what is actually going on in the economy.

Sherry has always been able to connect with the average person on the street, and she has done so again with this book! A must-read for those trying to get through these turbulent times.

Review for "Ride the Wave"

Excellent, easy-to-read, and well written!

A Brilliant Exploration of What We Do, Make, and Own

Sherry Cooper is a bright, international economist who really understands the issues, basis, and effects of our New Economy. More impressive (and important) than that, though, is her ability to make the often dry world of economics come to life. This book is exciting and fun while at the same time widely informative and revealing. It gives the reader a complete look at our modern economy. Calling it readable would be an understatement. This book is a pleasure to read. You will come away from it with a new understanding of the turbulent financial world in which we live. Cooper is a writer who thinks like an economist and writes like a novelist.

Packs a Punch

Dr. Cooper's book is a great read - it is informative, perceptive, and full of personality. Contrary to most financial-type texts, this particular book is entertaining and easy to read. Most importantly, it is filled with economic insight that only an expert like Sherry Cooper could convey. I highly recommend that anyone interested in their financial future should purchase this book.
