In Search of a New America


BOOK REVIEW: Andy Stern's A Country That Works | Getting America Back On Track
"In 2006, the average American household is carrying significant debt, has little or no money to save for retirement, and may or may not have health insurance. A staggering number of Americans are facing serious economic challenges – living only one illness or accident away from bankruptcy.

In his new book A Country That Works, Andy Stern argues that our political and social systems increasingly don't function and need major reform. He proposes innovative and workable solutions for vital political and economic reform - a plan for a renewed America where work is rewarded; where everyone has quality, affordable health care; where our education system effectively teaches our children; where people can retire with dignity and security; and where everyone contributes to making America great.

During the first week of October, Andy will be on the Colbert Report on Comedy Central and Fresh Air with Terri Gross on NPR. You can also look for him on the cover of Fortune. Sign up now to get regular email updates.

Check out the first stops of Andy's book tour: October 4 in Washington, DC; October 5 in Philadelphia; October 6 in New York; and October 10 in Chicago. Get more details and find out where else Andy's going to be speaking.
