I figure most British publications are skeptical of the Euro given the Brit's lack of adoption.

> Passionately written, this important book will rock the smug, often detached eurozone policymaking elite. [...] Stiglitz deserves credit for breaking a taboo among respectable mainstream economists and finally admitting that the single currency is doomed.

> This is a book, then, that will unnerve millions of British centre-Left progressives – those who backed British EU membership unquestioningly and now complain bitterly about Brexit. Many such voters, after all, view Stiglitz as their favourite economist.

Sometimes the informal tone in British journalism really highlights the writer's (and publication's) bias.
