Summary: Looks at the way our economic attitudes are rooted in the poverty, inequality and economic peril of the past. Examines the partial and implicit accomodation to affluence. Considers the devices and arguments by which, in vital matters, we have managed to maintain an association with the older ideas which stemmed from a world where nearly all were poor. Looks finally, at the new tasks and opportunities that are before us.
