On Fairness

Little books, big ideas.

Most of us believe in fairness. Why then do we have creeping inequality in the land of the fair go?

The answer lies in stagnant wage rises, gender pay inequity, insecure work and the lack of real opportunities for all while corporations are still consuming large profits and executives claim record bonuses.

Sally McManus confronts these truths every day. In On Fairness, she explores the true cost of social injustice and argues for advancing Australia fair.
