2014-04-16 00:35:00| Powells Books Events Calendar
The issue of inequality has irrefutably returned to the fore, riding on the anger against Wall Street following the 2008 financial crisis and the concentration of economic and political power in the hands of the superrich. How bad is it? According to Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist David Cay Johnston, most Americans, in inflation-adjusted terms, are now back to the average income of 1966. Divided (New Press) collects the writings of leading scholars, activists, and journalists to provide an illuminating, multifaceted look at inequality in America.
