Fair Play brings together a selection of Danny Dorling's highly influential writings examining inequality and social justice. Offering crucial insight into the popular feeling that the United Kingdom is in crisis--a feeling made manifest in last summer's riots--Dorling provides a wealth of evidence that the country is becoming more politically, socially, and economically divided despite progress in areas such as education and reduced segregation. Dorling's work covers a broad range of subjects and will be of interest to anyone concerned with where one of the world's leading democracies is headed.

Industry Reviews

"Professor Dorling, geographer extraordinaire, brings the debate on inequalities and social immobility to life: if his powerful new book leaves you stimulated, provoked, angry, then Danny Dorling has succeeded again." ---Lord Richard Best, independent member of the House of Lords. "Danny Dorling consistently works to subject the myths that sustain inequality and injustice to the test of patient inquiry. In the political struggles that lie ahead of us we need a social science that does not reproduce the assumptions of the privileged and the powerful. We need, in other words, to read Danny Dorling." ---Dan Hind, author of The Return of the Public and The Threat to Reason. "A store of brain stimulants to dip into. Dorling turns his serious research into engaging prose, consistently questioning the ways of our world." ---Ludi Simpson, University of Manchester. "The Spirit Level of 2011" ---Zoe Williams, The Guardian. 'In this book Daniel Dorling has brought together fifty-two of his academic papers, newspaper articles, magazine articles, and unpublished essays, to create a nicely structured and really quite devastating critique of our unequal society: devastating because so carefully researched.' ---Citizen's Income Newsletter.
