"This is a welcome anthropological college textbook on surveying global human inequalities across differentworld regions, nation-states, and local cultural responses and initiatives. It accessibly discusses a complex andimportant subject now constantly studied and increasingly debated for creating new inequalities." - R. S. Khare, Anthropos "Drawing from the fields of anthropology, economics, history, political science, philosophy, and more, McGill weaves together a tapestry to support the book’s overarching argument: inequality is real, there is no primary form of inequality, and inequalities are multiple and overlapping."- Leo McCann, University of York (Agric. and Human Values, vol 35)
