His Washington Post column today, “A New Specter: Deflation”
His new book, “The Great Inflation and Its Aftermath”
Ha.
More seriously, can’t think of a Post column Samuelson has written that wasn’t worth reading; he puts economic issues in understandable terms and insightful context.
The new book comes out tomorrow, and it’s primarily a history about the ’60s and ’70s with an analysis of how the inflationary period shapes our nation and economy today. (Or so we gather.) You can read Chapter 1 here.
For D.C. area residents, he speaks at the Politics & Prose bookstore November 15th.
