The Past And Future of America's Economy: Long Waves of Innovation That Power Cycles of Growth
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
‘I congratulate the author on a great and important book. I couldn't agree more that the political party that comes closest to supporting humane growth economics should be the leader for the next 25 years. It's a great vision for the future, and his scholarly but readable mix of history, technology, economics and politics is very persuasive. It's the sort of stuff that should be taught in economics courses, but almost never is.' - David Moschella, author of Customer-driven IT: How Users Are Shaping Technology Industry Growth
‘Rob Atkinson is one of the most creative thinkers about the American economy. In this fascinating book, he puts the "new economy" spurred by the digital revolution into the context of other historic transformations. By doing so, he shows how we can preserve the gains in productivity and implement policies that will keep the economy growing. Everyone concerned about our economic future should read this.' - Walter Isaacson, author of Benjamin Franklin: An American Life
Throughout American history, periodic cycles of economic change have fundamentally reordered the way we work, the organization of business and markets, the role of government, and even the nature of politics. If we are to control our future, we must understand this process of change.
