Part 2: Illustrates the growth of the theory of distribution in the hands of successive generations of economists. Part 3: Develops the theory on the subject of the division of income between categories. Part 4: Looks at the division of income between people and the causes of that inequality, paying particular attention to the factor of inherited wealth.
