520 _a"Greece is in crisis. Since the revelation of its massive hidden deficit in late 2009, observers have watched the country flirt with political and financial chaos as one failed rescue programme follows another, as extremism spreads and as its creditors bicker about the causes of its stagnation. Through a series of compelling stories - from a cancer sufferer dependent on charitable health care to the Finance Minister charged with clearing tax evasion - The 13th Labour of Hercules seeks to answer two of Europe's most pressing questions: how did a prosperous, seemingly advanced economy collapse so precipitously? And when will Greece stand on its feet again?"-- Publisher's description.
