Robert Kuttner is the cofounder and coeditor of The American Prospect, one of the country’s most popular progressive political and public-policy quarterlies. His many books include Everything for Sale, The Squandering of America, Obama’s Challenge, and Debtors’ Prison. A former columnist at the Boston Globe, the Washington Post, and Business Week, he is currently the Ida and Meyer Kirstein Chair at Brandeis University. In his new book, Kuttner uses historical precedent to propose a bold course back to a healthy capitalistic society that favors the rights of the worker as much as it does the corporation.
