Review of 'The Complacent Class: The Self-Defeating Quest for the American Dream' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

Didn't agree with everything in here, but Cowen presents a lot that makes sense--especially on the negative effects of increasing segregation and matching and how it is resulting in a complacent and self-involved populace that is unwilling to take risks. Food for thought and a contrarian take from one of our foremost thinkers.
