A galvanizing new work from America's leading economic
critic—a book that will set the terms of the political
debate for years to come.
No one has more authority to call the shots the way they
really are than Paul Krugman, whose provocative New York
Times columns are keenly followed by millions. One of the
world's most respected economists, Krugman has been named
America's most important columnist by the Washington
Monthly and columnist of the year by Editor and Publisher
magazine. In this long-awaited work containing Krugman's most
influential columns along with new commentary, he
chronicles how the boom economy unraveled: how exuberance
gave way to pessimism, how the age of corporate heroes gave
way to corporate scandals, how fiscal responsibility
collapsed. From his account of the secret history of the
California energy crisis to his devastating dissections of
dishonesty in the Bush administration, Krugman tells the
uncomfortable truth about how the United States lost its
way. And he gives us the road map we will need to follow if
we are to get the country back on track.
