"Jacques Attali is a unique figure: an intellectual in the world of politics, an individualist in the world of high finance, avisionary and a dreamer. This startlingly fresh and sometimesmaddeningly provocative book—a description of the future byone of the men who will make it—is required reading foranyone seriously interested in politics, culture, and finance."

"A brilliant man, Attali produces more ideas in a week than mostpeople do in a year."
 
— The Economist
 
"Millennium bears all the marks of Jacques Attali: the intellectualnerve, the extraordinary ambition, the breadth of coverage, theiconoclastic statements. It's the kind of book that sets one, as theFrench put it, to thinking furiously."
