(4 Sterne)

The reader does an excellent job of conveying the material with the authors voice. and conviction, and explains the Fabian views concisely on how to give society a flattop — no super rich, no super poor. Alas, the book ignores the power of individualism to create all the wealth the Fabians plan to re-distribute,and the incompetences of bureaucracy to create wealth in the first place.
