Customer Reviews

if you're a skeptic of the way capitalism works, read it

This book was actually well written and very informative. It is very critical of capitalism and seeks ways nearing the end of it to reform advanced capitalism. There are charts in it which makes viewing wealth gaps easy to grasp and there is a lot of information on anything relevant to wealth itself (i.e. stocks, credit, etc.) I used it for a class and learned a lot and still refer to it. I only give it a 4 because it is different essays by many different people and there were a few I could have done without reading, but for the most part it's worth a read.
