Jennifer Taub has published a new book, “Other People's
Houses: How Decades of Bailouts, Captive Regulators, and Toxic Bankers Made
Home Mortgages a Thrilling Business.” 
Here is an excerpt from the Yale University Press description:

Focusing new light on the similarities between the savings
and loan debacle of the 1980s and the financial crisis in 2008, Taub reveals
that in both cases the same reckless banks, operating under different names,
received government bailouts, while the same lax regulators overlooked fraud
and abuse. Furthermore, in 2013 the situation is essentially unchanged. The
author asserts that the 2008 crisis was not just similar to the S&L
scandal, it was a severe relapse of the same underlying disease. And despite modest
regulatory reforms, the disease remains uncured: top banks remain too big to
manage, too big to regulate, and too big to fail.

UPDATE: The book will be in bookstores in May, but can be
pre-ordered now.
