ISBN10: 0262046784, ISBN13: 9780262046787, [publisher: The MIT Press Feb 2022] Hardcover Neuware -How genomics reveals deep histories of inequality, going back many thousands of years.Inequality is an urgent global concern, with pundits, politicians, academics, and best-selling books all taking up its causes and consequences. In Inequality, Carles Lalueza-Fox offers an entirely new perspective on the subject, examining the genetic marks left by inequality on humans throughout history.
