Description: How has the revolution affected the lives of the Cuban people? Are they better off now than before Castro came to power in 1959? If so, in what ways? This book presents a careful measurement of the economic, social, and political consequences of the Cuban revolution. The findings are conclusions are likely to upset common assumptions about Castro's Cuba and to prove discouraging to those who have been optimistic about the ultimate benefits of the revolution.
