Danny Katch in his well argued, and humorous book, Socialism...Seriously, explains why capitalism is not a sustainable economic system for the planet, and how modern solution can be a better solution.

Runaway Inequality is indeed an activist handback, becuase it explains how capitalist economic system works in laymen's terms, and why there's such a huge economic gap that makes it extremely difficult for most people to reach their fullest potentional.
