Description:

Brookings economist and former presidential adviser Barry Bosworth examines why saving rates in the US have fallen so precipitously over the past quarter century, why the initial consequences were surprisingly benign, and how reduced saving will affect the future well-being of Americans. The Decline in Saving provides an extensive account of the complexity of present saving patterns, an issue made even more serious by the 2008-09 global economic and financial crises.
