The U.S. Federal Reserve has been under fire lately for its policies and secrecy. Many critics are arguing that we need to audit the Fed‐and legislation to that effect has been introduced in Congress and voted on. But should we audit the Fed? The authors take a close look at how the Fed works and the controversies that surround it. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
