Ganesh Sitaraman at Harvard Book Store

Everyone has a horror story about air travel. Flying doesn’t have to be this bad. Why Flying Is Miserable, by Vanderbilt University law professor and policy expert Ganesh Sitaraman, is an eye-opening, highly-readable journey through the history of how air travel used to operate in the United States, what changed to give us the broken system we work within today, and how we can fix flying in order to serve more Americans, more efficiently, with fewer federal bailouts and headaches. “This is policy argument that can make a difference. Highly recommended!” —Jon Meacham, Pulitzer Prize–winning author and historian
