The Affluent Society by JK Galbraith

JK Galbraith was a leading economist of the last century. His book "The Affluent Society" became a best selling economics book. He was of the opinion that increasing production numbers gave a false assumption that all is well with the economy. He also wanted to spend more government money on education.
