From economist Anne Case and Nobel Prize winner Angus Deaton, a groundbreaking account of how the flaws in capitalism are fatal for America's working class
Life expectancy in the United States has recently fallen for three years in a row―a reversal not seen since 1918 or in any other wealthy nation in modern times. In the past two decades, deaths of despair from suicide, drug overdose, and alcoholism have risen dramatically, and now claim hundreds of thousands of American lives each year―and they're still rising. Anne Case and Angus Deaton, known for first sounding the alarm about deaths of despair, explain the overwhelming surge in these deaths and shed light on the social and economic forces that are making life harder for the working class. They demonstrate why, for those who used to prosper in America, capitalism is no longer delivering.
Deaths of Despair and the Future of Capitalism paints a troubling portrait of the American dream in decline. For the white working class, today's America has become a land of broken families and few prospects. As the college educated become healthier and wealthier, adults without a degree are literally dying from pain and despair. In this critically important book, Case and Deaton tie the crisis to the weakening position of labor, the growing power of corporations, and, above all, to a rapacious health-care sector that redistributes working-class wages into the pockets of the wealthy. Capitalism, which over two centuries lifted countless people out of poverty, is now destroying the lives of blue-collar America.
This book charts a way forward, providing solutions that can rein in capitalism’s excesses and make it work for everyone.

评分对美国的现状分析的非常到位
评分美国人的预期寿命最近连续三年下降,这是自1918年以来或在现代任何其他富裕国家都未出现过的。在过去二十年里,因绝望导致自杀、吸毒过量和酗酒致死的人数急剧上升,每年夺去成千上万美国人的生命——而且还在继续上升。本书的两位作者解释了这些死亡人数激增的原因,并阐明了使工人阶级生活更加艰难的社会和经济力量,以及为什么资本主义对于那些曾经在美国生活安逸的人来说已不再奏效。本书作者之一Angus Deaton是2015年诺贝尔经济学奖得主。
