BOOK REVIEW and DISCUSSION

Join us for a lively discussion of the most talked about book of the year.  Thomas Piketty is a French economist, whose book “Capital in the Twenty-First Century,” has taken the nation by a storm.  Bookstore shelves cannot keep it stocked quickly enough.  The book deals with economics and income inequality!  Paul Krugman, of the New York Times, “credits Piketty with inspiring a ‘revolution in our understanding of long-term trends in inequality.’”

Whether or not you have read Piketty’s book, you owe it to yourself to come to this book discussion, at the Flossmoor Public Library (not a sponsor to this event), the Helen Wilson Room (lower level), 1000 Sterling Avenue, Flossmoor, IL  60422, on Sunday, August 3, 2014, at 2:00p.m.  Bring a friend!  We look forward to this important and timely discussion with you.
