Inequality is making the whole human race sick, be it inequality of income, race, religion, gender, tribe or wealth. It has become a cause of tension and confl ict around the world. Bernard Shaw says that only idiots favour inequality of income, which is their only chance of eminence. Plutarch said that inequality is an ailment that means that it has a cure. Th is is exactly what the book tries to do by calling all republics and individuals that support inequality to desist from it. Its eradication would ensure a healthy society, devoid of tension, violence and persistent confl ict. Treating others the way we want to be treated will be one of the most credible solutions to reduce inequality in our society and the global stage.
