Brian Nolan, University of Oxford:
This is a most unusual and stimulating book. It covers a remarkably broad sweep in time, and deals with issues that are central to the future evolution of humanity across the globe.

Thomas Piketty, Paris School of Economics:
In this fascinating book, Milanovic is able to articulate the study of inequality between and within countries in the clearest possible way. A must-read.

Angus Deaton, Princeton University:
In Global Inequality, Branko Milanovic continues his lifelong investigation into the past, present, and future of inequality, within and between nations and in the world as a whole. Full of new and provocative ideas—including Kuznets waves and citizenship rents—the book will cement Milanovic’s reputation as one of the most thoughtful and enterprising of inequality scholars.
