Galbraith, John Kenneth

The good society: the humane agenda Galbraith, John Kenneth - Boston Houghton Mifflin Co. 1996. - vii, 152 p., 22 cm.

"This compact, tightly argued, and eloquent book is the quintessential John Kenneth Galbraith, the manifesto of the ""abiding liberal."" In defining the characteristics of a good society and creating the blueprint for a workable agenda, Galbraith allows for human weakness without compromising a humane culture, and recognizes barriers that hinder but do not defeat a responsible, stable, and hopeful future."
