Summary:

"In a new book ("The Competition Solution," published by the American Enterprise Institute), economist Paul London argues that heightened competition overshadows Reagan's tax cuts, Clinton's budget policies or new technologies in explaining the resurgent prosperity of the 1990s. He's more than half right. Competitive pressures helped suppress inflation. They also helped raise living standards, through improved productivity." -- Robert Samuelson, Newsweek, Jan. 31, 2005
