In this timely and exceptionally accessible work, philosopher John Wright tackles economic rationalism from a moral perspective. First, in non-technical language, he reviews the economic arguments for economic rationalism. Wright then sets out to examine the ethical defences for economic rationalism, considers the many criticisms of economic rationalism - and then weighs up whether the moral defences of economic rationalism are truly valid.
John Wright is a historian at the University of KwaZulu-Natal, Pietermaritzburg. Aron Mazel is an archaeologist at the School of Historical Studies, University of Newcastle.
