Editorial Reviews
Review
“The book is full of enlightening argument, and particularly compelling is a method which sets out from a situation in which a Basic Income has been implemented and then studies a situation in which it has been abolished.” – Citizen’s Income Newsletter
“Overall, the book is a major contribution to the liberal egalitarian literature on basic income.” – Ethical Perspectives
