Perelman, Choice 'Rob Atkinson is one of our best analysts of how innovation drives local and regional economies, and what to do to take advantage of technological change. In his visionary book, he fluently articulates the principles of a new 'growth economics' that is America's best hope for a prosperous future leaving no one behind.' -- Rosabeth Moss Kanter, Harvard Business School professor and author of Confidence: How Winning Streaks and Losing Streaks Begin and End 'Any person concerned about the future of our economy should read this book. Atkinson offers terrific historical perspective as well as specific policy proposals that would give us the best chance for broad based economic growth now and for generations to come. It should be mandatory reading for public policymakers.' -- Congressman Adam Smith (D-WA), Co-chair of the House New Democratic Coalition, US 'Rob Atkinson has produced a powerful and far-reaching look at the underlying mechanism powering today's New Economy. In particular, he shows how the US is just at the beginning of an innovation wave which is not only boosting productivity, but transforming economic organization and economic policy as well. This book is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand how the US economy got to where it is today, and how it can best get to a prosperous and humane future.' -- Michael J. Mandel, Chief Economist, Business Week, and author of Rational Exuberance: Silencing the Enemies of Growth
