Book Synopsis

Stories of economic shame in Britain and a hopeful way forward for capitalism



Trade Review

‘How the system became rigged so that even the fortunate lose out: a masterpiece.’

* Danny Dorling, author of Inequality and the 1% *

‘The latest in the series of powerful books on the divisions in modern Britain, and will take its place on many bookshelves beside Reni Eddo-Lodge’s Why I’m No Longer Talking to White People About Race and Owen Jones’s Chavs.’

* Andrew Marr, Sunday Times on Posh Boys *

‘[A] hard-hitting, forensic takedown.’
