For the benefit of those who haven't tried to read Piketty, I highly encourage you to do so. I don't agree with all his proposed causes or solutions, but the data is very interesting. And I didn't find him unreadable at all, in fact highly enjoyable, if you're the kind of person who likes to read serious non-fiction.

It's an academic book written in French that just happened to take off. It's also clearly an important book. There's data around that it is very often unread. http://www.wsj.com/articles/the-summers-most-unread-book-is-1404417569 http://www.wsj.com/articles/the-summers-most-unread-book-is-...
