Seller Description
This national bestseller by one of the country’s most influential political commentators surveys a century of American history, from the reforms that tamed the harsh economic disparities of the Gilded Age to the reemergence of immense social and political inequality since the 1970s. One decade into the twenty-first century, as the tide turns once again, “The Conscience of a Liberal” calls for another great era of reform, outlining a program for change that emphasizes universal health care as the centerpiece of a new New Deal, explaining what can be done to narrow the income gap, and describing the shape of the new political coalition needed to make our society not just more equal but more democratic. This edition includes a new introduction reflecting on the opportunities and challenges that face the country in the wake of the 2008 election.
