註釋La quatrième de couverture indique : "There is relatively little research into wealth and the wealthy despite increasing academic, policy and public interest in the growing gap between rich and poor, and the personal assets of the wealthy. This book draws on new data to answer the following key questions : What is wealth? Who has got it? Where might we draw a 'wealth line'? Who lies above it? And what might policy do about wealth and the wealthy? The book draws on debates from a range of disciplines including sociology, economics, politics and philosophy and it discusses policy issues in relation to taxation, housing, pensions and education, using a variety of sources ranging from HMRC data to The Sunday Times Rich list. It is therefore and ambitious book aimed at a wide audience, including students, academics, policy makers, journalists and members of the general public, and one that makes an important contribution tothe debate on personal wealth and the wealthy."
