About This Item
NY: W. W. Norton & Company, 2008. 1ST. HARDBOUND. VERY GOOD in VERY GOOD jacket. 1ST. 5.9 x 1.3 x 8.6 inches. pp. 336. Publisher: W. W. Norton & Company (February 17, 2008) Language: English HARDBOUND: 336 pages ISBN-10: 0393067017 ISBN-13: 978-0393067019 Item Weight: 15.5 OUNCES Dimensions: 5.9 x 1.3 x 8.6 inches. The true cost of the Iraq War is $3 trillion-and counting-rather than the $50 billion projected by the White House. Apart from its tragic human toll, the Iraq War will be staggeringly expensive in financial terms. This sobering study by Nobel Prize winner Joseph E. Stiglitz and Harvard professor Linda J. Bilmes casts a spotlight on expense items that have been hidden from the U.S. taxpayer, including not only big-ticket items like replacing military equipment (being used up at six times the peacetime rate) but also the cost of caring for thousands of wounded veterans-for the rest of their lives.
