9/20/17 review of Population, Capital, and Growth, by Simon Kuznets

Here is the link to my Twitter thread review of the essay collection Population, Capital, and Growth, by Simon Kuznets.

The thread gives a summary of the book and some context on my experience of Kuznets's work. The thread discusses Kuznets's idea of economics and epochs; the economic need for technological innovation and good political conditions; economic factors versus economic results; economic balances and interrelations; national economic differences; and the need to look more deeply into demographic factors for economic growth.

This book used to be available through W.W. Norton. But it looks like it is now out of print.
