商品簡介
Tracing the economic machine of the United States from its first experiments in the colonies to the post-Great Recession era of today, Frederick Weaver creates a dynamic narrative of this country’s progression through times of feast and times of famine. Weaver explores diverse areas of the market beyond the financial sector, examining historical fluctuations in distribution of income, how the ebb and flow of specific industries have influenced the shape of the market, and ultimately how the economy of the United States has made America the nation we know today.
