Reviews
"An incredibly thoughtful book. With wit, expertise and a necessary anger, Danny Dorling makes the case for a 'slow revolution' against the concentrated wealth of the top 1%, who threaten our national and global well-being. Read him. Enjoy him. Join him." --Melissa Benn, writer and campaigner "A convincing picture of the epic insulation of the 1%." --Mary O'Hara, author of Austerity Bites "A clear and readable account of the damage wrought by extreme inequality. This is a powerful book." --Kate E. Pickett, co-author of The Spirit Level "Dorling asks questions about inequality that fast become unswervable: can we afford the superrich? Can society prosper? Can we realize our potential?" --Zoe Williams, Guardian, Praise for Danny Dorling: "Geographer royal by appointment to the left." --Simon Jenkins "With brilliance and passion Dorling analyses the mind-set of entitlement among those who hold ever tighter to money, power and life's best rewards, generation to generation." --Polly Toynbee, Guardian "Dorling provides the brain-cleaning software we need to begin creating a happier society." --Richard Wilkinson, author of The Spirit Level "A brilliant analysis of the nature of inequality in the UK. It is a 'must read' for anyone who wants to understand inequality and how we might tackle it." --Matthew Taylor, Chief Executive, RSA

Synopsis
Since the great recession hit in 2008, the 1% has only grown richer while the rest find life increasingly tough. The gap between the haves and the have-nots has turned into a chasm. While the rich have found new ways of protecting their wealth, everyone else has suffered the penalties of austerity. But inequality is more than just economics. Being born outside the 1% has a dramatic impact on a person's potential: reducing life expectancy, limiting education and work prospects, and even affecting mental health. What is to be done? In Inequality and the 1% leading social thinker Danny Dorling lays bare the extent and true cost of the division in our society and asks what have the superrich ever done for us. He shows that inquality is the greatest threat we face and why we must urgently redress the balance., Inequality is more than just economics, it is the culture that divides and makes social mobility almost impossible. Leading writer Danny Dorling goes in pursuit of the latest research into how the lives and ideas of the 1% impact on the remaining 99%; and the findings are shocking...Inequality is increasing; more and more people are driven towards the poverty line. Even before birth, being born outside the 1% will have dramatic impact on the rest of your life: it will reduce your life expectancy, educational and work prospects, as well as your mental health. In this book, filled with illustrations and infographics that bring the facts to life, Dorling convincingly proves that the cost of the super rich is just too high for us.
