In ''The 21st Century Economy-A Beginner's Guide'' Epping argues that economic literacy is essential in what he calls our "fusion economy", where what happens in one corner of the globe can have an immediate impact on the rest of the world.〔("Nonfiction Reviews" ), ''Publishers Weekly'', 2009-02-02. Retrieved on 2009-02-16.〕 The book is well-reviewed by Library Journal, which calls the work "remarkably accessible." 〔Maxted, Lawrence.("Social Sciences" ), ''Library Journal'', 2009-15-02. Retrieved on 2009-02-16.〕
In ''Trust'', Epping explores the possibility of a forgotten "Treuhand" account — an account opened in another person's name in order to keep the real owner secret — thousands of which were opened by Jewish families in Switzerland as the Nazis invaded Europe. Epping speculates that if such an account were never returned to the family, or stolen by the trustee, it would have multiplied a thousand times over the past six decades. Much of the book is based on the real-life details of Epping's work with a Jewish family trying to reclaim buildings in Berlin that they had owned before World War II.〔Wisniewski, Mary.
