Econoclasts: The Rebels Who Sparked the Supply-Side Revolution and Restored American Prosperity (Culture of Enterprise)

“Brilliant . . . This is the book Americans need to read now.”—Larry Kudlow

“Should be required reading.” —Weekly Standard “An amazing history of one of the most important chapters in the evolution of economic thought. . . . Will someone please deliver this book to [President Obama’s] doorstep?” —Claremont Review of Books “A brilliant, overlooked book.” —Peter Ferrara, American Spectator “Couldn’t be more timely.” —Amity Shlaes “I’ve never read anything on the subject of economics that surpasses this extraordinary book for its lucidity, richness, depth, intelligibility, savvy, and sheer intellectual excitement.” —Wilfred McClay The history we can’t afford to forget At last, the definitive history of supply-side economics—an incredibly timely work that reveals the foundations of America’s prosperity when those very foundations are under attack. In the riveting, groundbreaking book Econoclasts, historian Brian Domitrovic tells the remarkable story of the economists, journalists, Washington staffers, and (ultimately) politicians who showed America how to get out of the 1970s stagflation and ushered in an unprecedented quarter-century run of growth and opportunity. Based on the author’s years of archival research, Econoclasts is a masterful narrative history in the tradition of Amity Shlaes’s The Forgotten Man and John Steele Gordon’s An Empire of Wealth.
