Recensioner i media

"Danny Dorling and Bethan Thomas pull no punches in this tour de force of social commentary. Alongside a series of striking maps, charts and meticulous statistics, their incisive text reveals a society torn apart by inequality and the damage caused to the vast majority of us by the moral bankruptcy of the rich and powerful." Kate Pickett, Professor of Epidemiology, University of York, co-author of The Spirit Level, and co-founder of The Equality Trust
