Based on a pioneering research programme on the evolution of top incomes, this        volume brings together studies from 10 OECD countries. This rapidly growing field of        economic research investigates the top segment of the income distribution by using        data from income tax records over the past century. As well as describing the source        data and methods employed, the authors also discuss the dramatic changes that have        occurred at the top of the income scale throughout the 20th century.This fascinating        study is the first of its kind to provide a comprehensive historic overview of top        income distribution over the last century. It looks at why top incomes shares fell        markedly in the first half of the 20th century and why, more recently, there has        been a striking difference in the top income distribution between continental Europe        and English-speaking OECD countries, like the UK, USA, and Australia. Written by the        top names in the field, this seminal work provides richpickings for those with an        interest in inequality, development, the economic impact of war, taxation, economic        history, and executive compensation.
