"Why is it that the things we value most--from frontline nurses to the natural environment to keeping children well fed and educated--seem of little importance to economic markets? This bold, deeply researched manifesto offers a needed action plan to transform market values into human values." -- inside front jacket flap.

Dense and full of insights

Mark Carney holds am economics directorate and wrote a book that could be taught in university as a primer on economics, history of the financial system, leadership principles, governmental philosophy, climate change, crisis handling, value generation... It's fascinating and insightful but also at times a bit of a chore to get through.
