 \n…………………………………………………………………………………\nRadical 
 economist Richard Wolff recently exploded into the forefront of progressive 
 thinking in the United States with his brilliantly insightful book 
 Capitalism Hits the Fan, which chronicled Wolff’s growing alarm and 
 insights as he watched the economic crisis build, burst, and dominate world 
 events.  His analysis differs sharply from explanations offered by 
 politicians, media commentators, and other academics. While he retains many 
 Marxist contentions, Wolff rejects the economic determinism typical of most 
 schools of economics.  \n \n“Richard Wolff is the leading social 
 economist in the country. This book is required reading for anyone 
 concerned about a fundamental transformation of the ailing capitalist 
 economy.” \n– Cornel West\n \nProfessor of Economics Emeritus from the 
 University of Massachusetts, Amherst, Wolff is currently a Visiting 
 Professor in the Graduate Program in International Affairs at the New 
 School University in New York. In recent years while delivering public 
 lectures at many colleges and universities, as well as to community and 
 trade union meetings, he has built a reputation for blunt speaking, 
 clarity, refreshing scorn, and an enjoyable wit. \n \nWolff is the author 
 of many books, including Democracy at Work: A Cure for Capitalism, Occupy 
 the Economy: Challenging Capitalism, and Capitalism Hits the Fan: The 
 Global Economic Meltdown and What to Do About It. He hosts the weekly 
 hour-long radio program Economic Update on WBAI (Pacifica Radio) and writes 
 regularly for The Guardian, Truthout.org, and the MRZine.\n \n“Bold, 
 thoughtful, transformative - a powerful and challenging vision that takes 
 us beyond both corporate capitalism and state socialism. Richard Wolff at 
 his best!”\n—Gar Alperovitz, author of America Beyond Capitalism\n 
 \nMitch Jeserich is the host of Pacifica Radio’s “Letters & Politics” 
  - a look at burning political issues and debates and their historical 
 context. It is broadcast Monday through Thursday on 94.1 FM. \n\n\n
