A bold and urgent argument by the Prime Minister of Canada and former bank governor on the radical, foundational change that is required if we are to build an economy and society based not on market values but on human values.


Our world is full of fault lines—growing inequality in income and opportunity; systemic racism; health and economic crises from a global pandemic; mistrust of experts; the existential threat of climate change; deep threats to employment in a digital economy with robotics on the rise. These fundamental problems and others like them, argues Mark Carney, stem from a common crisis in values. Drawing on the turmoil of the past decade, Mark Carney shows how “market economies” have evolved into “market societies” where price determines the value of everything.

When we think about what we, as individuals, value most highly, we might list fairness, health, the protection of our rights, economic security from poverty, the preservation of natural diversity, resources, and beauty. The tragedy is, these things that we hold dearest are too often the casualties of our twenty-first century world, where they ought to be our bedrock.

In this profoundly important new book, Mark Carney offers a vision of a more humane society and a practical manifesto for getting there. How we reform our infrastructure to make things better and fairer is at the heart of every chapter, with outlines of wholly new ideas that can restructure society and enshrine our human values at the core of all that we build for our children and grandchildren.

His resume stands alone, his compassion is clear with the way he writes.
Canadas most qualified PM could also have a back up plan of being an audio book reader. Well read, clear, concise- Carney is a true world leader and we are lucky to have him!

Canada is lucky to have Mark Carney

I found the content of this book to be rather tedious and written in a way that seemed to emphasize the intellect of the writer more than anything. In addition, the author's narration was not helpful. Many good points in content were made without emphasis and in a tone that just sort of trailed off. Whatever the content, a good professional narrator would have been a major contribution to the audio version.

While it can seem dry in places, I really liked learning some of the history and the values involved in policy and corporate and governmental governance. Super interesting, and oddly uplifting.

Worth listening to
