The methods examinedallow usto analyze, compare and modify such distributions from an economic and social perspective. Though balanced income distributions are key to peacefulcoexistencewithin and between nations, it is often difficultto identify the right kind of balance needed, because there is an interesting interaction with innovation and economic growth.

One highlight of the book is its rigorous treatment of the so-called Atkinson theorem and some extensions, which help to explainunder which type of societal utility functions nations tend to operate either in the direction of more balance or less balance.
