A New York Times best-selling call to arms from Nobel Prizeโwinning economist Paul Krugman.
The Great Recession is more than four years oldโand counting. Yet, as Paul Krugman points out in this powerful volley, "Nations rich in resources, talent, and knowledgeโall the ingredients for prosperity and a decent standard of living for allโremain in a state of intense pain."
How bad have things gotten? How did we get stuck in what now can only be called a depression? And above all, how do we free ourselves? Krugman pursues these questions with his characteristic lucidity and insight. He has a powerful message for anyone who has suffered over these past four yearsโa quick, strong recovery is just one step away, if our leaders can find the "intellectual clarity and political will" to end this depression now.
