About Adam Tooze
Chartbook is a regular newsletter featuring writing, statistics, charts, links, book recommendations and more from Adam Tooze, one of the leading commentators on economics and history.
Chartbook addresses themes from the political economy of the eurozone, to the economic history of China and the philosophy of history that might help us make sense of Nazi Germany and Albert Speer.
It is the sort of mixture that you would expect from the author of Wages of Destruction, Statistics and the German State, Deluge, Crashed and Shutdown.
Often, Chartbook essays are spawned as elaborations of pieces you may have come across in the LRB or Foreign Policy, the New Statesman, the Guardian, Social Europe and occasionally the FT. But for me the newsletter is a new type of writing and the project is steadily evolving.
Chartbook started out, as the name suggests, as a series of charts.
