Cowen delivers his magnum opus on where we are headed. It begins with one big, uncomfortable truth: if you're not at the top, you're at the bottom because a steady, secure life somewhere in the middle is over.

Cowen reveals the essential nature of the new economy: how things will get better and provides practical advice on the best path forward. Average Is Over is a must-read book for entrepreneurs, workers and anyone who wants to thrive in the post-recession economic landscape.
