Book excerpt: Since the 1970s the US economy has been sending more and more of its rewards to fewer and fewer people. Once seen as a global exemplar of egalitarianism and middle-class opportunity, America has become the most unequal of developed nations. This quarter-century long trend has changed the texture of American life in ways that threaten the country's deepest values. Drawing on the best and latest research, Inequality Matters explores the real story the numbers tell about how America has changed.
