This collection of essays by 1971 Nobel Prize winner Simon Kuznets, published posthumously, represents the primary concerns of his research at a late phase of his career, as well as themes from his earlier work.

This is a collection of essays by Simon Kuznets, winner of the 1971 Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences, dealing with 'modern economic growth' and the interrelations between demographic change and income inequality.
