Summary, etc. This volume of readings is published in association with the Foundation for<br/>Education in Economics. It brings together in a systematic schemeimportant<br/>work produced in recent years by prominent writers in the fields of social<br/>policy, political theory and economics which challenges and rebuts<br/>egalitarian doctrines and assumptions<br/>Though arguing from different standpoints-the collection does not hew to a<br/>strict orthodoxy of dissent-the contributors powerfully illuminate key issues<br/>arising from their scrutiny of the various arguments advanced in favour of<br/>equality.<br/>The question of 'social equality- differences of status, class, esteem, and the<br/>like- receives less emphasis than other aspects of equality. None the less<br/>the contributors bring ample evidence to bear to show that the claims of<br/>egalitarianism in the social sphere are as ill-founded as in any other.<br/>William Letwin is Professor of Political Science at the London School of<br/>Economics. His publications include The Origins of Scientific Economics (1963;<br/>reprinted 1975), Sir Josiah Child: Merchant Economist (1959), A Documentary<br/>History of American Economic Policy since 1789 (new edn 1972), and Lawand<br/>Economic Policy in America (reprinted 1981).
