<br/><br/> Three International Monetary Fund economists show that the increase in inequality has been a political choice-and explain what policies we should choose instead to achieve a more inclusive economy. Confronting Inequality is a rigorous and empirically rich book that is crucial for a time when many fear a new Gilded Age.
