This book examines the relationships between industrialization and poverty, and equity and productivity. It argues that the arguments for the Kuznets curve is strong, but that inequality has never been essential to non-human capital accumulation. Indeed the development of human capital through education, training and other means, and the more equal distribution it generates, has benefitted growth.
