How citizens can create meaningful change in a world of mega-bonuses, super-rich and Big Tech

New book reveals why (and how) we need economic reform before it's too late.

WHY THIS BOOK IS IMPORTANT

  • A global emergency: Wealth continues to rise worldwide, whilst ordinary citizens face stagnant wages, rising living costs, and strained public services. The disparity in wealth is now reaching levels that created conditions for First World War.
  • The system is rigged: The super-rich often pay proportionally less tax than workers, starving governments of funds needed for schools, healthcare, and infrastructure. New initiatives such as the UK's mansion tax are attempts to tax the wealthy, but fall short of tackling super-rich issue.
  • Democracy at risk: Concentrated wealth brings concentrated political power and citizens across the world are losing their voice.
  • A practical, accessible guide: Written in plain English, the book explains complex economic issues through stories, analogies and simple models that show exactly how the system works and how to change it.
