Tyler Cowen shows the economic, financial, and demographic forces which will determine the winners and losers of the next decade in fields as different as healthcare, education, energy, and global markets. He offers compelling analyses of the future of the Eurozone, Medicare and Medicaid, the American financial system, and many more, demonstrating in every case who will come out on top and why.

His most recent book, Stubborn Attachments: A Vision for a Society of Free, Prosperous, and Responsible Individuals. Cowen argues that our reason and common sense can help free us of the faulty ideas that hold us back as people and as a society. Stubborn Attachments, at its heart, makes the contemporary moral case for economic growth and delivers a great dose of inspiration and optimism about our future possibilities.

Tyler’s predictions flow from the vision laid out in his bestselling book, The Great Stagnation: How America Ate All the Low-Hanging Fruit of Modern History, Got Sick, and Will (Eventually) Feel Better. He discusses the widening gap between rich and poor in Average Is Over: Powering America Beyond the Age of the Great Stagnation. In his book, The Complacent Class: The Self-Defeating Quest for the American Dream, Tyler argues that Americans today have broken away from the willingness to move, take risks and adapt to change. A tradition that has created a dynamic economy and of innovation.
