"Read this powerful argument from Samuel Gregg as to why faith in the American Experiment in liberty under law requires us to reject economic nationalist trends toward protectionism, the use of industrial policy, and other interventions in the pursuit of transient and populist agendas. Markets grounded in a commercial republic are what America needs. Gregg shows why."
-Vernon L. Smith, 2002 Nobel Laureate in Economics, Professor of Business Economics and Law at Chapman University

"We're long overdue for a morally compelling defense of the market economy--one that avoids the errors of utilitarian dogma and the absolutizing of individual autonomy. In the great and neglected tradition of Adam Smith, Samuel Gregg has given us a philosophical treatment of economic questions that places moral and political concerns front and center while bringing to bear empirical knowledge and sophisticated technical expertise."
--Robert P. George, McCormick Professor of Jurisprudence and Director of the James Madison Program in American Ideals and Institutions at Princeton University

"In The Next American Economy, Samuel Gregg creatively distinguishes between the forces of state capitalism and the free market economy. For the latter to succeed and benefit all people, he shows us, with fascinating historical examples, that America must do much more than follow sound economics. It must embrace all the ideas that made America strong."
--John B. Taylor, Mary and Robert Raymond Professor of Economics at Stanford University, George P. Shultz Senior Fellow in Economics at the Hoover Institution

"Could we get Samuel Gregg's book into the hands of every high school senior and graduating college student, please? Will someone intent on changing the direction of America's economy seize on this text and send it far and wide? Gregg has written a book for broad audiences that should be read from East to West, North to South--by the young, but also by those older among us who have forgotten the purpose of the American story in a dangerous world. Exhortations alone cannot carry forward renewed faith in the American way of capitalism. It must be explained. This is what Gregg has done and in a winsome, winning fashion. Read and pass it on. Purchase it again and again."
--Hugh Hewitt, author, attorney, and national host of The Hugh Hewitt Show

"For years, movements that reject free trade and advocate for industrial policy have gained traction on the right. They have yet to receive a cogent response from conservatives who recognize the U.S. economy's problems--especially those associated with a belligerent China--but who also reject economic nationalism as a solution. Samuel Gregg has produced the response that we need. The Next American Economy is a perfect storm. It acknowledges today's challenges, rebuts economic nationalist policies, and makes a fresh case for a market economy grounded in sound economics and the wisdom of America's first principles. We will be talking about this books for years. For my money, it represents the defining book in addressing this vital topic."
