The Curse of Bigness by Tim Wu is a sharp, accessible examination of how concentrated corporate power threatens democracy, innovation, and economic fairness. Drawing on history—from the Gilded Age to modern tech giants—Wu shows how unchecked monopolies distort markets and weaken the institutions meant to protect the public. With clarity and urgency, he argues for a renewed commitment to antitrust enforcement as a safeguard for both economic opportunity and democratic stability. A compelling pick for readers interested in law, economics, and the future of competitive markets.
