| Description: |
By the controversial social critic and author of "Illiberal Education" comes a big-hearted book that revels the pursuit of wealth through capitalism as morally edifying. |
| Synopsis: |
In The Virtue of Prosperity, Dinesh D'Souza examines the spiritual and social crisis spawned by the new economy and new technologies of the last ten years. D'Souza questions the basic premise of the American dream that prosperity and "progress" will better the human condition. Anchored in history, rich in anecdote, and supported by state-of-the-art data, The Virtue of Prosperity is a tough-minded critique of our high-tech culture, with a surprising prescription for doing well and doing good. |
