What is Life Worth?
- Synopsis
-
Appointed by Attorney General John Ashcroft to administer the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund, Feinberg here reflects on his experiences in the post. He describes the nuts and bolts of the task, including the difficulties of balancing competing demands of 9-11 survivors under the congressional mandate that defined appropriate compensation for an individual's worth in terms of his or her earning power. He also discusses the impact that the job had on him as an individual. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc. , Portland, OR (booknews. com)
