This book introduces the elegant and intriguing kinetic exchange models that physicists have developed to tackle these issues. This is the first monograph in econophysics focussed on the analyses and modelling of these distributions, and is ideal for physicists and economists. It is written in simple, lucid language, with plenty of illustrations and in-depth analyses, making it suitable for researchers new to this field as well as specialized readers. It explores the origin of economic inequality and examines the scientific steps that can be taken to reduce this inequality in the future. 517 3 $aEconophysics of Income & Wealth Distributions 606 $aIncome distribution 606 $aWealth 606 $aEconophysics 615 0$aIncome distribution. 615 0$aWealth. 615 0$aEconophysics. 676 $a339.2 686 $aBUS061000$2bisacsh 700 $aChakrabarti$b B.
