More about the book
In 1945, many Europeans still heated with coal, cooled their food with ice, and lacked indoor plumbing. Today, things could hardly be more different. Over the second half of the twentieth century, the average European's buying power tripled, while working conditions and social safety nets improved significantly. This book explores the evolution of the European economy since the end of World War II, examining the transition from coordinated capitalism to the challenges and changes of the contemporary era.
