Reviews

I would like to emphasize that it is exciting and appealing to read and study this small book. It is a smart and readable introduction to the issues of inequality from an economic and historic perspective and a good starting point for further in-depth analyses of the consequences of inequality as well as its policy implications. -- Wilfried Altzinger, Journal of Economics
