1:17:53Now PlayingPaul Krugman discusses his book "Arguing With Zombies"
In Arguing with Zombies, Paul Krugman tackles many of the misunderstandings of basic economics, taking stock of where the United States has come from and where it's headed in a series of concise, digestible chapters. Drawn mainly from his popular New York Times column, he explains the complexities of health care, housing bubbles, tax reform, Social Security, and so much more with unrivaled clarity and precision. Arguing with Zombies puts Krugman at the front of the debate in the 2020 election year and is an indispensable guide to two decades' worth of political and economic discourse in the US and around the globe. Krugman turns his readers into intelligent consumers of the daily news and hands them the keys to unlock the concepts behind the greatest economic policy issues of our time. In doing so, he delivers an instant classic that can serve as a reference point for this and future generations.
Krugman is in conversation with Heather Boushey, the President & CEO and co-founder of the Washington Center for Equitable Growth.
Paul Krugman, recipient of the 2008 Nobel Prize in Economics and best-selling author, has been a columnist at The New York Times for twenty years. A Distinguished Professor at City University of New York, he resides in New York City.
