Provides a solid background on the historical context of inequality. However, I think the book needed updated data.

The book is informative, but the writing style could be more engaging. I struggled to stay focused at times. Still, some valuable information here.

A decent read overall, but it felt a bit repetitive in certain sections. The author made important points, but perhaps could have been more concise.
