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 mans life as a social being. Ranging widely over literature, philosophy, psychology, and the social sciences, Professor Schoeck- a distinguished sociologist and anthropologist-elucidates both the constructive and destructive consequences of envy in social life. 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.
