Vulture Capitalism: How to Survive in an Age of Corporate Greed

* Longlisted for the inaugural Women’s Prize for Non-Fiction *

‘If you’ve ever wondered why you (and everyone you know) feel so out of control of the world around you, this book will give you the answer’ ASH SARKAR
‘A must-read for anyone keen to put the demos back in democracy’ YANIS VAROUFAKIS

Everything you know about capitalism is wrong.

Free markets aren’t really free. Record corporate pro­fits don’t trickle down to everyone else. And we aren’t empowered to make our own choices – they’re made for us every day.

Taking on the world’s most powerful figures and corporations – from JP Morgan to Boeing, Jeff Bezos to Donald Trump – Vulture Capitalism uncovers the causes of our modern crisis to reveal the true motives of our capitalist system. Because it isn’t broken: it’s working exactly as planned.

This is the book you need to understand what is happening in the world around you – and what you can do to change it.

‘Read this book if you want to make fundamental changes to the world’ HA-JOON CHANG
