Book Review: “Capital in the 21st Century by Thomas Piketty”
Presenter: Dr. Paul Hohenberg
Retired RPI economics professor Paul Hohenberg will discuss the book that "harks back to Marx's Das Kapital not only in title, subject, and concern with income inequality, but also in being a large book that many speak of and few actually read."
Our speaker suggests to anyone who is not up for reading the 700-page book that he or she get the TED talk by the author. It is on YouTube and gives a good overview in 15 minutes. French accent is free.
