Eliot Spitzer is former governor of New York and cohosts CNN’s In the Arena. He is author of Government’s Place in the Market.
A Q&A With Eliot Spitzer
As New York State Attorney General from 1998 to 2006, Eliot Spitzer successfully pursued corporate crime, including stock price inflation, securities fraud, and predatory lending practices. Drawing on those experiences, in this book Spitzer considers when and how the government should intervene in the workings of the market.
The market should deliver public benefits, and government can help ensure that the bounties of capitalism actually are shared for the good of wider society.
