Herbert Hoover Knihy
Herbert Hoover, postava americkej histórie, bol nielen banský inžinier a prezident, ale aj autor. Jeho viera v 'ekonomickú modernizáciu' prostredníctvom vládnych intervencií a hnutie za efektivitu formovala jeho prístup k spoločenským a ekonomickým výzvam. Ku každému problému pristupoval s presvedčením, že technické riešenie je dosiahnuteľné. Hoci jeho prezidentské obdobie zatienila Veľká hospodárska kríza, jeho snahy o jej boj, prostredníctvom dobrovoľných akcií aj vládnych opatrení, zostávajú významnou súčasťou jeho odkazu.
