The Soul of Capitalism: Opening Paths to a Moral Economy

by William Greider

The Soul of Capitalism: Opening Paths to a Moral Economy Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

In his previous bestsellers, Who Will Tell the People and Secrets of the Temple, William Greider laid bare the inner workings of American politics and the Federal Reserve, revealing how they often work against the interests of the majority of us. In The Soul of Capitalism, Greider examines how the greatest wealth-creation engine in the history of the world is failing most of us, why it must be changed, and how specifically it can be transformed.

Brilliantly perceptive and sweeping in its ambition, The Soul of Capitalism is also hard-headed and practical, as Greider, one of our most eloquent populist spokesmen, assures us we are not powerless. He illustrates how American capitalism can be aligned more faithfully and obediently with what people want and need in their lives, with what American society needs for a healthy, balanced, and humane future. He proves that it is within our power to reinvent capitalism to make it work for us.

The Soul of Capitalism — solid, pragmatic, visionary, optimistic — addresses the nation's most urgent needs.

Synopsis:

The author of the bestselling "Who Will Tell the People?" shows how to reinvent capitalism so it works not just for most of people, but for all people.
