What are the grand dynamics that drive the accumulation and distribution of capital? Questions about the long-term evolution of inequality, the concentration of wealth, and the prospects for economic growth lie at the heart of political economy. But satisfactory answers have been hard to find for lack of adequate data and clear guiding theories. In this work the author analyzes a unique collection of data from twenty countries, ranging as far back as the eighteenth century, to uncover key economic and social patterns. His findings transform debate and set the agenda for the next generation of thought about wealth and inequality. He shows that modern economic growth and the diffusion of knowledge have allowed us to avoid inequalities on the apocalyptic scale predicted by Karl Marx. But we have not modified the deep structures of capital and inequality as much as we thought in the optimistic decades following World War II. The main driver of inequality--the tendency of returns on capital to exceed the rate of economic growth--today threatens to generate extreme inequalities that stir discontent and undermine democratic values if political action is not taken. But economic trends are not acts of God. Political action has curbed dangerous inequalities in the past, the author says, and may do so again. This original work reorients our understanding of economic history and confronts us with sobering lessons for today.

When two people are meant to be together, nothing can stop them. But when those two people come from two different worlds, there are plenty of people who will do all they can to keep them apart. When faith, culture, and tradition are challenged, it takes an extraordinary amount of courage and commitment for love—and everything else—to thrive. Karan, an Indian Hindu, is a handsome, talented, and self-motivated young man with high career aspirations. Zeina is a beautiful Pakistani Muslim fashion designer working in New York City. They meet one day by chance and discover love at first sight. Despite all the obstacles in their way, Karan and Zeina know that they are meant to be. They fight for their love, refusing to let the many differences and barriers in their way keep them apart. Love will find a way. 65 West 55th Street captures the funny, sentimental, emotional, and traumatizing moments of a profound journey for love and acceptance against all odds. They know the truth: All forces against them will gradually wither away, leaving only true love. Nothing else matters.
