Inequality: What can be done?

John Lewis reviews a stimulating new book by Anthony Atkinson

by John Lewis 7th August 2015

Professor Anthony Atkinson is the author of a hefty new volume called Inequality: What can be done? The book is well known to many politicians and many more economists throughout Europe and America. I suspect that it is already an irritant to a certain class of politician. It is interesting to note that Anthony Atkinson has donated some of the royalties of his book to the Quaker Housing Trust.
