Reviews

Finally, a book that sets forth, in lucid and strategic terms, what feminists and progressives have been saying for a long time - that equality and social justice make good economic sense.
*Gloria Steinem*

This book is by the three most interesting economists of the left in the United States...or anywhere...today. The persuaded should read it for further instruction; the unpersuaded will miss it at their peril and loss.
