Description: Offering an entirely new approach to the wealth question, the authors demonstrate that up to 90 percent of current economic output derives from society's collective inheritance, known as a "free lunch." Alperovitz and Daly argue that there is no reason any one person should be entitled to that inheritance.

Review Quotes: ...authors strike upon a vital topic when they highlight the need for the benefits from productivity gains to be shared... -- Mark Engler
