Drawing upon official data and literature, Guillermo de la Dehesa seeks solutions for Europe by comparing its situation to that of the U.S. and revealing how much more can be achieved in the areas of efficiency, productivity, and innovation."

He then presents a comprehensive blueprint of reforms for increased prosperity and deeper social cohesion."--BOOK JACKET
