详细说明: The Age of Turbulence: Adventures in a New World is the title of the memoir of former Chairman of the Federal Reserve Alan Greenspan, published on September 17, 2007. "The Age of Turbulence: Adventures in a New World," by Alan Greenspan is two books in one. The first half of this work is an autobiographical chronology of the author's life.
