Reviews

'Evolution of the Corporation in the United States is essential reading on today's corporations. Combining economics, law, and finance, it demonstrates how corporations evolved from serving the public interest to advancing the private interest of financial elites. Anyone aiming to fashion an agenda for economic reform must begin with this book.' -- Charles J. Whalen, University at Buffalo, US
