Peak Inequality: Britain's ticking time bomb

Peak Inequality: Britain's ticking time bomb

by Danny Dorling (Author), Danny Dorling (Author), Danny Dorling (Author)

Synopsis

Inequality is the key political issue of our time. Here Dorling brings together brand new material alongside a carefully curated selection of his most recent writing on inequality from publications as wide ranging as the Daily Telegraph, the Guardian, New Statesman, Financial Times and the China People's Daily. Covering key inequality issues including politics, housing, education and health, he explores whether we have now reached `peak inequality'. He concludes, crucially, by predicting what the future holds for Britain, as attempts are made to defuse the ticking time bomb while we simultaneously try to negotiate Brexit and react to the wider international situation of a world of people demanding to become more equal.
