Our world is full of fault lines--growing inequality in income and opportunity; systemic racism; health and economic crises; climate change. Mark Carney argues that these fundamental problems and others like them stem from a common crisis in values. When we think about what we, as individuals, value most highly, we might list fairness, health, and the protection of our rights. The tragedy is, these things that we hold dearest are too often the casualties of our 21st century world, where they ought to be our bedrock. In this profoundly important book, Mark Carney offers a vision of a more humane society and a practical manifesto for reformation.
