The Field Guide to the U.S. Economy: A Compact and Irreverent Guide to Economic Life in America
Join valley locals Nancy Folbre and James Heintz as they present The Field Guide to the U.S. Economy, the extensively revised and expanded edition they co-authored with Jonathan Teller-Elsberg. Bringing key economic issues to life, and reflecting the collective wit and wisdom of the many progressive economists affiliated with the Center for Popular Economics (CPE), this user-friendly book covers a wide range of subjects, including workers, women, people of color, government spending, welfare, education, health, the environment, macroeconomics, and the global economy, as well as brand-new material on the war in Iraq, the Department of Homeland Security, the prison-industrial complex, foreign aid, the environment, and pharmaceutical companies. (PLUS cartoons on each page!)
Also sponsored by the MSP/MTA and USA/MTA of UMass, WMass. AFSC, WMass. Jobs with Justice.
