Review: A major disappointment. Jeff Madrick is very knowledgeable and well spoken but this book is little more than a sermon supporting big government and social programs.

Summary: Misguided
Review: This author lacks serious academic credentials. He provides little in the way of facts, but plenty in the way of opinions. His philosohpy of economic growth has been thoroughly discredited among leading economists. His recommendations sound good, but the economy just doesn't work that way.
