The Fifth Risk by Michael Lewis

4.0

Michael Lewis's love letter to the hard working members of the US government. Lewis takes President Trump's failure to prepare for the transition of power between the exiting and entering administrations as a way into exploring the important and unexpected work the Department of Energy, Department of Commerce, and Department of Agriculture. He spotlights administrators from each department and gathers their expertise on the important work they did under the Obama administration and what they see as the biggest risk to our country moving forward. It's a quick read full of surprising anecdotes. Well worth the few hours you'll spend reading.
