One needn’t be an economist to know that California’s economy is in crisis. By a number of very important measures, California is failing. Especially considering the state’s status as a bellwether for the rest of the nation, Cali­fornia cannot allow this downward spiral to continue unchecked. It must be reversed—and sooner rather than later. Eureka! is a prescriptive book will provide a true economic roadmap for the rehabilitation of California through actionable solutions. Laffer also looks at other states to endorse practical policies that have resulted in strong economic growth.

Distinguished as “The Father of Supply-Side Economics” for his economic acu­men and influence in triggering a worldwide tax-cutting movement in the 1980s, Arthur Laffer was a member of President Ronald Reagan’s Economic Policy Ad­visory Board during both of Reagan’s terms. Laffer served as a distinguished professor at the University of Southern California and at Pepperdine University, and was also a member of the board of directors at Pepperdine. Previously, he was a professor at the University of Chicago and a consultant to Treasury Secretary William Simon, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, and Treasury Secretary George Shultz, under whom he was named the first-ever Chief Economist at the Office of Management and Budget. He received his B.A. from Yale University and his M.B.A. and Ph.D. from Stanford University, all in economics.
