Omschrijving
"A fascinating study of how elite privilege, networks and schools contribute to the fabric and perpetuation of social inequality. A must-read."
Thomas Piketty, EHESS, Paris
"This is an important contribution to academic literature and social commentary that is written in an accessible style but informed by analysis and evidence. It will appeal to both expert and general audiences in many countries."
Peter Saunders, University of New South Wales
