Not at all a bad read. Written in an engaging style and with a substantial amount of research, it is eye opening, and certainly made me question how best we can tackle inequality. While I certainly don't agree with it all, I am glad that even the solutions that are suggested in his conclusion are not simply about greater government power to force through heavy handed policies which are often resented, but instead suggests ways in which we can encourage certain business practices and organisation which can make a huge difference to equality and health. Worth a read whatever your political views.

Inequality within our societies makes everyone unhappier, and not only that, it puts us at higher risk for disease too! who knew?
Read it for school, I enjoyed it, but sometimes Wilkinson would be a little...repetitive. And sometimes he would say things that made me a little cross, but I'm glad I read it. It broadened my horizons.
