A 13-part personal view by John Kenneth Galbraith of the rise and crisis of Industrial Society
2: The Manners and Morals of High Capitalism
* It's a peculiarity of the rich that, of all classes, they are much noticed but very little studied.'
PROFESSOR GALBRAITH looks at the ideas that sustained the rich in the last century and how they still affect our attitudes today. HERBERT SPENCER justified the money-making in straight Darwinian terms as 'survival of the fittest'.
THORSTEIN VEBLEN thought a parallel with the Papuan savages a more appropriate one.
