The Good Society: The Humane Agenda (Softcover-Used) by John Kenneth Galbraith This compact, tightly argued, and eloquent book--the manifesto of the "abiding liberal"--defines the characteristics of a good society and creates the blueprint for a workable agenda. Galbraith allows for human weakness without compromising a human culture, and recognizes barriers that hinder but do not defeat a responsible, stable, and hopeful future.
