Our Fair Share: How One Small Change Can Create a More Equitable American Economy is written by someone named Brian C. Johnson. There is another author named Brian C. Johnson who is currently attributed to the book, but it's the incorrect Brian C. Johnson (based on appearance and bio. I also know the person who wrote Our Fair Share personally). I believe the person who wrote Our Fair Share does not yet have an author page so wasn't sure what to do with that. Can a librarian member help?

Has your friend Brian C. Johnson any other books in Goodreads?
Daniel wrote: "Has your friend Brian C. Johnson any other books in Goodreads?"Nope! It's his first book so it looks like he doesn't have a goodreads author page so that may be step 1? Is that right?
No, that is not necessary, but I wanted to know in case he did so that we did not end up with more Brian C. Johnsons than necessary,I've moved the book and he is now "Brian C. Johnson", with two spaces between C. and Johnson. If he wants to, he can claim that profile by following the link at the bottom of the author page.
