Crashing the Dollar?

I have no idea if the recently stumbled upon book Crashing the Dollar is worth reading or not (the 10 reviews at Amazon.com work out to 3.5 stars out of 5), but one thing is certain - it has a stunning cover. Even if the dollar does crash while President Obama is in office, it’s still not clear to me that the seating as depicted above is correct as it seems the pilot and praying roles could just as easily be reversed.

Nonetheless, we have another entry in the burgeoning field of how to survive a financial crash of some sort, what seems to have morphed from a tiny, niche sector five or six years ago to a cottage industry that has spawned a huge collection of books on the subject.
