<em>Very Short Introductions</em>: Brilliant, Sharp, Inspiring Why are some countries rich, and some poor? Does this status persist throughout time, and if so, why? How can a country escape poverty? In this Very Short Introduction, Robert C.

Using historical examples to analyse the factors that have influenced growth, he exposes what has caused the unequal world we live in today, focusing on recent changes in equality and world economic disruption.
