Sir Anthony Atkinson has been working on inequality and poverty for more than four decades. He was an academic mentor to the young Thomas Piketty and they worked together on building an historical database on top incomes. Sir Anthony has now published his own book on the subject, and its prescriptions are even more radical than Piketty's. http://econ.st/1IhtPBy
