Occupy the Economy - Richard Wolff

A collection of interviews with David Barsamian.  You get a good sense of the thinking of Wolff around democratic and economic issues from the interviews, and in a language that is very readable.  The unfortunate thing is that it is framed around the Occupy movement, which makes the book seem a bit dated.  There is a very short "Manifesto for Economic Democracy and Ecological Sanity" at the end of the book.  This is an excellent guide to Wolff's ideas around alternatives to the current capitalist system.  It is a good starting point for further reading, including his  Facebook page at Economic Democracy Manifesto.
