In a new, half-hour Consuelo Mack WealthTrack special premiering on Friday, March 25 at 7:30 p.m. on WLIW21, Anchor and Managing Editor Consuelo Mack interviews thought-provoking financial historian Niall Ferguson about the seismic shift occurring in the world economic order. He discusses why the centuries long dominance of Western economic and political power is waning and what the United States needs to do prevent it from slipping even more. It is the focus of his upcoming book, Civilization: The West and the Rest. A prolific commentator, columnist and professor at Harvard and Oxford, Ferguson is the author of several best-selling books, including The Ascent of Money and Colossus: the Rise and Fall of the American Empire.

Check out Ferguson’s THIRTEEN series The Ascent of Money, based on his popular book.
