Description and Table of Contents

Description

The emergence of "winner-take-all-markets", with few winners and many losers, has transformed the US economy. The authors of this book conclude that this has resulted in income inequality, overcrowding in some areas and increased cultural conformity, and suggest policies for reversing this trend.
