“Figueroa takes us on a journey to understand the synergies between economic growth, income inequality, and environmental degradation within an overarching framework entitled ‘unified theory’. … The overall framework gives an evolutionary system of human interactions which accounts for both biological and social needs and shows how these are shaped by social environment.” (Aurelie Charles, The Journal of Development Studies, Vol. 54 (8), 2018)
