"We live in an era of unprecedented prosperity.
The United States has created the first mass affluent class in world history, and most of us are more successful than we ever dreamed we could be.
New technologies have given us extraordinary abilities to communicate and share information, and also godlike power over nature and ourselves.

Its champions embrace the power of technological capitalism and the wealth it creates -- they believe it will feed and heal and liberate the world.
Its detractors warn that techno-capitalism creates enormous inequalities, undermines families and communities, and destroys our most cherished values.
How can we heal this division that runs deep in our society, and in our hearts? How can we learn to be happy with our success? In The Virtue of Prosperity, former White House policy analyst Dinesh D'Souza offers the first in-depth analysis of the spirutual and social.
