Reviews
'A very readable summary of Piketty's important book, written by a leading expert on inequality data.' Per Krusell, Chair of the Committee for the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences 'An ideal companion to Piketty. For students and those in need of easier access to Piketty's work, Roine lays out the story in clear terms while providing very useful historical and economic background.' David Stasavage, New York University 'Jesper Roine has written a superb summary of the most talked-about economics book of the 21st century. Jesper's sharp analytical mind, deep social interest and his own respected research in the field make him the ideal author of a book like this.' Magnus Henrekson, Research Institute of Industrial Economics, 'This book is for people who were interested in Piketty's analysis of inequality, but found his book too ponderous to finish. That includes me! Roine compresses Piketty's magnum opus down to 160 digestible pages, not by losing detail, but by expressing the essential data and analysis in a concise, accessible way.' Steve Keen, author of Debunking Economics 'A very readable summary of Piketty's important book, written by a leading expert on inequality data.' Per Krusell, Chair of the Committee for the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences 'Provides invaluable support for students interested in Piketty's landmark work and the debate that it has generated. This book is one that every student reading Capital in the Twenty First Century should use.' Sara Gorgoni, University of Greenwich 'An ideal companion to Piketty. For students and those in need of easier access to Piketty's work, Roine lays out the story in clear terms while providing very useful historical and economic background.'

Synopsis
Thomas Piketty's Capital in the Twenty-First Century has been hailed as a masterpiece, making a powerful case that wealth inequality is not an accident, but rather an inherent feature of capitalism. But how many of us who bought or borrowed the book have read more than a fraction of its 700+ pages? And how many of Piketty's groundbreaking ideas have gone unappreciated, all for want of intellectual stamina? In this handy volume, Jesper Roine - whose own work was relied upon by Piketty - explains in clear and accessible prose the key concepts behind, and controversies surrounding, Piketty's landmark work., We all know the book: it's been hailed as one of the most important documents on how the world economy works, or doesn't work, and it's been a colossal bestseller since it first appeared in 2014, with more than 1.5 million copies sold. Thomas Piketty's Capital in the Twenty-First Century makes a powerful case that wealth, and accumulated wealth, tends to stay where it lands: and with the passage of time, just gets bigger... and bigger. But how many of us who bought or borrowed the book--or even, perhaps, reviewed it--have read more than a fraction of its 696 pages? How many more shuddered at the thought of committing $40 to such a venture? And how many of Piketty's groundshaking concepts have gone unappreciated, all for want of intellectual stamina? Deliverance is at hand in the form of Pocket Piketty , written in clear and accessible prose by an experienced economist and teacher-and one whose work was relied on by Piketty for his masterpiece. In this handy and slim volume, Jesper Roine explains all things Piketty.

- n***d (49)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseExcellent seller. Package was delayed ( by bad weather) and then misplaced at PO( placed in wrong box #) but I contacted the seller and they responded quickly and I got my item today. This seller went the extra mile and I would highly recommend them and will shop here again. I also want to say the price for this complete hard to find item was way below most of the other listings. Condition was good as stated, and although I've only watched the first disc it's quality is good.

- 6***t (479)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchasePurchasing form this company can at times be frustrating due to items never arriving, very low shipping time and the inability to track the items. But I gave them another chance and purchased many maps and books over the past few months and have received all of them. Last year, it was hit and miss. All items were in the condition as described. Packaging is minimal. The only downside is extremely slow shipping. I rate them a C+. Nothing to gloat about but eventually you will get what you wanted.
