Daniel Ben-Ami

Daniel Ben-Ami has worked as a writer for many years, during which time he has contributed to numerous national, specialist and international publications. Ferraris For All, his book defending economic progress, was published in 2010. A paperback edition, including an additional chapter on the inequality debate in the West, was published in 2012.

His book on global finance, Cowardly Capitalism (Wiley, 2001), was recommended by the Baker Library of Harvard Business School. Daniel writes regularly for the Financial Times on wealth and related topics. One day he hopes to untangle all the different ways in which the term ‘equality’ is used.

"The 2006 Battle of Ideas did what it said on the tin: prejudices were punctured, common wisdom was questioned and original thinking honoured. The saying was coined in Texas, but I suggest that the Battle of Ideas adopts it as the conference motto: ‘sacred cows make the best burgers."
