An Update of His Classic Text
Princeton professor and op-ed columnist Paul Krugman, who received this year's Nobel Prize for Economics for his work on patterns of trade and location, shows how today's economic crisis parallels the events that caused the Great Depression -- and explains what it will take to avoid catastrophe. Focusing on the failure of regulation to keep pace with an increasingly out-of-control financial system, this book is destined to become a cornerstone of the debate over how to respond effectively to current challenges.

Bill Gates is more than the world's most successful capitalist; he's also the world's biggest philanthropist. This year, at the annual meeting of the World Economic Forum, he advocated a creative capitalism in which big corporations integrate "doing good" into doing business. In this volume, more than 40 economic leaders and thinkers, from Warren Buffett to Nobel Laureate Edmund Phelps, tussle with that idea. The debate is a fascinating one, not just for philanthropists but for everyone interested in the new global economy.
