Book Synopsis




Trade Review
"Superb."---David Brooks, New York Times
"A searching examination of the decline of democratic ideals in the face of inequality—racial, political, and economic. It is also striking on many counts, including its fluency in several branches of the social sciences beyond economics. The author resists easy characterization. There's something to ponder on every page. A sometimes-daunting but essential addition to the discussion of inequality and its remedies." * Kirkus Reviews *
"The book contains many surprises documented with scholarly research and statistical analyses. The fact that Rothwell is principal economist at Gallup and senior fellow at the Brookings Institution makes his approach and conclusions even more valuable—even if I don’t always agree with him. I am not sure he will succeed selling the value of free markets to the left or, for that matter, to the right, but his book is well worth reading if one wants to think seriously about equality and inequality."---Pierre Lemieux, EconLib
"This book is necessary, interesting, and at times surprising." * Choice *
