Recommendation
In this thought-provoking sequel to his bestselling Capital in the Twenty-First Century, economist Thomas Piketty expands his focus on inequality to the prodigious “political-ideological repertoire” that constitutes the economic narratives of major nations. This description helps explain the book’s length of more than 1,000 pages, but even the more ponderous sections of Piketty’s tome reward the reader with refreshing and singular slants on history and ideology. Echoing the truism that change is the only inevitability, Piketty calls for more circumspection and greater discussion of the wider causes and remedies of inequality.

Comment on this summary or Démarrer une discussion
I haven't read this book yet (it sits on my shelf waiting), but after reading his previous book 'Capital in the 21st Century', I can't believe that Piketty would just pull things out of the air as his first book is all about data, going back decades and even centuries. I am sure a summary might not be able to do justice to an economist whose works pivots on solid data.
