Not since Freakonomics have we seen a book written by an economist with such popular culture appeal - but NY Times columnist and Cornell Business School professor Robert H. Frank is all business (pun intended) when it comes to the theory in his new book, Success and Luck: Good Fortune and the Myth of Meritocracy. His argument that luck - basically, chance - plays far greater role in our lives shatters our fundamental American belief in meritocracy. So what do you do about it? Come hear the discussion to find out.
