Unbound: How Inequality Constricts Our Economy and What We Can Do About It, by Heather Boushey | Book Review

I must admit that I felt a bit hesitant when I was invited to write a book review for the eJournal of Public Affairs. It has been—what?—4-plus decades since I was asked to compose a book review, and I still have a recurring nightmare in which I am forced to complete a final exam for a college class I had never taken—and I feared that writing the review might trigger another. Yet, the invitation was for a public-affairs mission that I am deeply committed to and grateful exists at Missouri State University, and the review gives me a chance to share some information about a subject I thoroughly enjoy—economics—but rarely have an opportunity to discuss.
