THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER´Why is there so much inequality?´ Xenia asks her father, the world-famous economist Yanis Varoufakis.

Drawing on memories of her childhood and a variety of well-known tales - from Oedipus and Faust to Frankenstein and The Matrix - Varoufakis explains everything you need to know in order to understand why economics is the most important drama of our times.

In answering his daughter´s deceptively simple questions, Varoufakis disentangles our troubling world with remarkable clarity, while inspiring us to make it a better one.´Utterly accessible, deeply humane and startlingly original - a potent democratic tool at the perfect time´ Naomi Klein

"If you´re Left-wing, or even if you have doubts about market economies, you´ll love his arguments because they´re so easy to understand. If you´re on the Right, you´ll have a very clear idea of how your cleverest opponents think ... Varoufakis tells all this with exemplary verve ... It´s great fun to read ... Varoufakis has started a debate here, and he´s done it brilliantly" Evening Standard
