'Lively, intelligent and packed with revelations, Share Power explains how even the smallest of investors can make themselves heard. A copy of this book should be on the desk of anyone with a pension.'

Allister Heath, Editor, The Sunday Telegraph

In this scintillating book, award-winning financial commentator Merryn Somerset Webb reveals a much-overlooked fact; every share we own comes with a vote. What few people know is that we can use these votes to influence company decisions - on everything from executive pay to corporate strategy.

Delving deep into the world of corporate capitalism - from the privatisation of state-owned companies in the 1980s, to the financial crash of 2008 and the growth of the modern multinational - Share Power shows us how capitalism went wrong and how, with six simple recommendations, every one of us now has the power to make it work for us.
