Evil Geniuses

In his New York Times bestselling audiobook, Kurt Andersen explores the turning point in America’s commitment to fairness, tracing the rise of big business and the erosion of middle-class prosperity from the New Deal era to the present. Through a rich tapestry of cultural, economic, and political insights, he examines how a coalition of wealthy elites and radical ideologies reshaped the nation’s economic landscape, leading to a disempowered workforce and widening inequality. With keen analysis and engaging prose, Andersen not only documents this troubling history but also offers a vision for restoring fairness and opportunity in America.
