The great divergence : America's growing inequality crisis and what we can do about it

Noah, Timothy (Author).

Summary: The income gap in America has been blamed on everything from computers to immigration, but its causes and consequences call for a patient, non-partisan exploration. Noah explains not only how this "Great Divergence" has come about, but why it threatens American democracy--and most important, how we can begin to reverse it.
