The spirit level
Book • 2010
The Spirit Level, based on thirty years of research, demonstrates that more equal societies have better health outcomes, lower levels of violence, fewer teenage pregnancies, and higher education and well-being.
The authors show that income inequality is detrimental to everyone in society, not just the poor, and that it erodes trust, increases anxiety and illness, and encourages excessive consumption.
The book presents comprehensive data and analyses to support the argument that greater equality leads to a more sustainable and friendlier society.
