Creating a Learning Society - (Kenneth J. Arrow Lecture) by Joseph E Stiglitz & Bruce Greenwald

This groundbreaking book, "Creating a Learning Society," offers a comprehensive understanding of how countries grow and develop by closing knowledge gaps and promoting learning.

The authors, Joseph E.

Stiglitz and Bruce C.

Greenwald, provide new models of "endogenous growth" that challenge conventional thinking about domestic and global policy and trade regimes.

They demonstrate how well-designed government policies can help create a learning society, while poorly designed intellectual property regimes can retard learning.

The book also explores the implications of free trade, industrial protection, and exchange rate interventions on economic growth.

With its accessible prose and technical economic analysis, this book is a must-read for policymakers, economists, and anyone interested in understanding how countries grow and develop.
