Toward an understanding of slower growth -- Part III. The sources of faster and slower growth. The great leap forward from the 1920s to the 1950s: what set of miracles created it? -- Innovation: can the future match the great inventions of the past? -- Inequality and the other headwinds: long-run American economic growth slows to a crawl -- Postscript: America's growth achievement and the path ahead.
