Reviews

This is a welcome anthropological college textbook on surveying global human inequalities across different world regions, nation-states, and local cultural responses and initiatives. It accessibly discusses a complex and important subject now constantly studied and increasingly debated for creating new inequalities. -- R. S. Khare, <em>Anthropos</em> Drawing from the fields of anthropology, economics, history, political science, philosophy, and more, McGill weaves together a tapestry to support the book's overarching argument: inequality is real, there is no primary form of inequality, and inequalities are multiple and overlapping. -- Leo McCann, University of York * Agric. and Human Values, vol 35 *
