What Money Can't Buy: The Moral Limits of Markets

by Michael Sandel - £9.99  Penguin Books Ltd (2013)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9780241954485 | ISBN 10: 0241954487

Should we financially reward children for good marks? Is it ethical to pay people to donate organs? What about hiring mercenaries to fight our wars, outsourcing inmates to for-profit prisons or selling citizenship? In recent decades, market values have impinged on almost every aspect of life - medicine, education, government, law, even family life. We have drifted from having a market economy to being a market society.
 
In What Money Can't Buy Michael Sandel asks: Isn't there something wrong with a world in which everything is for sale? And how do we protect the things that really matter?
