‘The Structure of a Modern Economy is a case-study of the American economy from 1929 to 1989, as revealed by national-income statistics and other data and pictured in over 70 graphs and diagrams. Important conclusions emerge regarding the causes of unemployment, the relation of inflation to the stock of liquid assets and the budget deficit, the proportion of the population in poverty, the gap between interest and profit rates, and the relation of productivity to income’ (dust jacket blurb).
