Description
Know Your Place by Faiza Shaheen is a personal and statistical exploration of how society and economy are structured, revealing what really defines life chances and how our current system keeps us locked into an ugly hierarchy. The author's own story serves as a powerful example of the barriers that can be overcome with hard work and determination. Yet, her success also highlights the inconvenient truth: social mobility is a fairy tale. The odds are stacked against most people, and it's statistically impossible for everyone to follow in her footsteps. This book is a thought-provoking read that challenges our assumptions about what determines life chances and how we can create a more equitable society.
