"The single most comprehensive counterargument to both Democratic neoliberalism and Republican laissez-faire theories. While credible economists running the gamut from center right to center left describe our bleak present as the result of seemingly unstoppable developments-globalization and automation, a self-replicating establishment built on 'meritocratic' competition, the debt-driven collapse of 2008-Stiglitz stands apart in his defiant rejection of such notions of inevitability. He seeks to shift the terms of the debate." -- Thomas B. Edsall - New York Times Book Review "An impassioned argument backed by rigorous economic analysis." -- Kirkus Reviews
