This classic study is one of the few books to explore extensively the many facets of envy-"a drive which lies at the core of man's life as a social being."

Perhaps most important, he demonstrates that not only the impetus toward a totalitarian regime but also the egalitarian impulse in democratic societies are alike in being rooted in envy.
