Review
.,."a solid economic history of the US since 1945, but this book is actually much more. Unlike other economic history texts, this well-researched general presentation manages to put people, especially labor, int he forefront."--M. Perelman, California State University, Chico
.,."an outstanding summary statement of more than fifty-five years of American economic history and policy and would make an excellent text for history, political science, and economics courses covering the recent era."--Michael Meeropol, chair of Department of Economics, Western New England College
