Abstract

A variety of mathematical inequalities are utilised to obtain approximation and bounds of the Gini mean difference. The Gini mean difference or the related index is a widely used measure of inequality in numerous areas such as health, finance and population attributes arenas. The paper provides a review of recent developments in the area with an emphasis on work with which the author has been involved.
