Review

"Even if you have never completed an economics course, this hugely readable book charts a comprehensible and balanced course between doctrinaire policies of both right and left. No misty theoretician, Sperling espouses specific and practical responses to economic and societal problems that too many have thought insoluble." -- Arthur Levitt, former Chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission
