About This Item
Boston: Houghton Mifflin Company, 1986. Few individuals have participated so intimately and so diversely in the cultural and political life of both the nation and world throughout the late 20th century as John Kenneth Galbraith. An economist by training and profession, he came first to public attention - and controversy - when as price czar he led in the creation of the economic structure that held the economy stable through the vast expansion of output in World War II. In ensuing years as an author and journalist of widely varied interests, he became one of the most respected figures of all time. This book is a treasure trove culled from his papers, a cavalcade of comment, some of it deeply personal, on world affairs, domestic politics, and literary matters extending from the end of the depression years to yesteryear.
