Well elaborated theory of property. Special mention to the analysis of the downfall of the Roman empire in relation with the use and abuse of property and the influence of the Christian religion in the concept of property.

3.0

Sharp at times, hilarious throughout the book, it gives the view of a Brit living in Denmark about the Nordic countries, their economies, cultures and glitches.

As it usually happens, this book is just a (rather educated) view on the Nordic societies. It is compound by theories supported by numerous statistics and one-on-one interviews with specialists on the matter without any pretentious animosity.
