Stiglitz presents students, academics, policy makers, and general-interest readers with an expansion of the argument he offered in The Price of Inequality suggesting ways in which we might counter the widening of inequality in the U.S. The author has organized the chapters that make up the main body of the text in eight sections devoted to the inequality and the financial crisis, the author’s personal reflections, the dimensions of inequality, the causes of America’s growing inequality, and a wide variety of other related subjects. Joseph E. Stiglitz is a Nobel Prize-winning economist, author, and faculty member of Columbia University, New York. Annotation ©2015 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
