In his book Seeds of Destruction: Why the Path to Economic Ruin Runs Through Washington, and How to Reclaim American Prosperity, Glenn Hubbard, dean of Columbia Business School and a former chairman of the President's Council of Economic Advisers, teams up with economics professor Peter Navarro to explain why the U.S. economy is in disarray and what can be done about it. These two well-known economists—one a Republican, the other a Democrat—identify the roots of the country’s slowing growth and chart the specific, simple policies that could take the American economy to new heights.
