The book provides a detailed analysis of the government's efforts to combat inflation, including the establishment of the Office of Price Administration and the use of rationing. Simmons also explores the impact of inflation on various sectors of the economy, including agriculture, labor, and business. Overall, Mobilization and Inflation provides a comprehensive examination of the economic policies and challenges faced by the United States during World War II.
