"With Happiness for All? , Carol Graham takes the study of the new inequality one step deeper. She tells what it means from the perspective of those who suffer from it, as she explores, from many different angles, how it affects Americans' sense of well-being, and their place within the American dream. This is a very important book, on the deepest social problem facing the United States today." --George Akerlof, Nobel Laureate in Economics "Carol Graham uses well-being measures to bring new insights to the divisions that are threatening America. Far from dreaming of a better tomorrow, many Americans, especially white Americans, are deeply pessimistic about their future and the futures of their children. This book brings much to think and to worry about." --Angus Deaton, Nobel Laureate in Economics "A convincing case that perceptions of well-being, including factors like stress and a sense of the value of one's life, have become far more negative for poorer Americans." --Jeff Madrick, New York Review of Books "[Graham's] important new book is the empirical version of Hillbilly Elegy .
