Review:
This book is mostly timely. Its time has also mostly passed. It is interesting to see Krugman address his accurate predictions and talk about what is important to track in the way of political economics. The fact that the GOP has become untethered from the truth makes it less important to address economic arguments which are based on truth rather than cult. If the GOP ever returns to truth, then they might be able to reenter the discussion, but as long as it is just a cult evaluation, there is truly no place for them in a reasonable discussion. Just another way of saying that facts matter.
