Concrete Economics by Stephen S. Cohen & J. Bradford DeLong Summary
Overview of Concrete Economics
Challenging free-market dogma, "Concrete Economics" reveals how government intervention - not laissez-faire policies - built America's prosperity. Nobel laureate Paul Krugman calls it "excellent" for exposing our collective amnesia about Hamilton's pragmatic approach that actually works.

America's Forgotten Economic Blueprint: Pragmatism Over Ideology
Forget everything you thought you knew about America's economic rise. The United States didn't become an economic superpower through unfettered free markets and minimal government. The real story? A pragmatic partnership between government and entrepreneurs that repeatedly reshaped the economy to create new opportunities. While we celebrate rugged individualism and free enterprise, America's economic history reveals a different truth: strategic government intervention created the spaces where entrepreneurial energy flourished. This forgotten history explains why Warren Buffett keeps "Concrete Economics" on his nightstand and why policymakers from Washington to Beijing study its lessons. The book's central insight? America's current economic challenges demand a return to pragmatic problem-solving rather than ideological purity-a lesson we've forgotten at our peril.
