Description
"Outsourcing has indeed become a crisis, but not because it is inherently bad - it is both good and bad. The key - and the imperative - is to maximize its benefits while mitigating its many negative consequences. Outsourcing America provides the necessary steps to confront this snowballing challenge and bring more high-paying jobs back to the U.S."--Jacket.
