About this book

This title revisits John Kenneth Galbraith's 'The Affluent Society' from the perspective of the background to, and causes of, the 2008 global economic crisis. Each chapter takes a major theme of his book, distils Galbraith's arguments, and then discusses to what extent they cast light on current developments.
