Brain Books discussion: "Affluence and Influence"

"Affluence and Influence: Economic Inequality and Political Power in America"by Martin Gilens, 2014. An evidence-based investigation of whether money really does affect politics in America, or not, and if so, something about how much and how.
"Brain Books" discussion group is very similar to, but not the same as, the Jefferson Center book group. Some people are members of both. The two groups usually read different books, but for December 2015, both chose the same book. Feel free to attend either or both groups. The discussion will assuredly be different in the two groups.
"Brain Books" meets in the Ashland Public Library on the fourth Tuesday of the month, from 1:30-3:30 in the Guanajuato Room. All are welcome. Discussion leader is Sandra Coyner and the books often touch on topics of interest to Jefferson Center members.
