Alphachatterbox: The life of Alan Greenspan

Alan Greenspan's reputation over five decades in public life has gone through wilder swings than the value of technology stocks or Las Vegas real estate during his tenure as Federal Reserve chairman. Author Sebastian Mallaby has produced the definitive account of Mr Greenspan's life, career, and the context in which he operated in a new book, The Man Who Knew. He joins FT Alphaville's Matt Klein to discuss.
