#42 - Richard Wilkinson - Why equality is better for everyone
Professor Richard Wilkinson is an epidemiologist, professor Emeritus of social epidemiology at the University of Nottingham, co-founder of the Equality Trust and co-author of the books, 'The Spirit Level' and 'The Inner Level' with his wife, professor Kate Pickett. Here we chat about why economic and social inequality is the root cause of a whole range of social issues including crime, mental health, obesity, life expectancy and many others and why equality really is better for everyone. We compare the examples of the USA and the UK with countries such Japan and Norway and how the data proves beyond doubt that more equal countries are safer, happier, healthier and live longer.
