Reviews

Michael Sandel's What Money Can't Buy is a great book and I recommend every economist to read it, even though we are not really his target audience. The book is pitched at a much wider audience of concerned citizens. But it taps into a rich seam of discontent about the discipline of economics.... The book is brimming with interesting examples which make you think.... I read this book cover-to-cover in less than 48 hours. And I have written more marginal notes than for any book I have read in a long time., Deeply provocative and intellectually suggestive.... What Sandel does...is to prod us into asking whether we have any reason for drawing a line between what is and what isn't exchangeable, what can't be reduced to commodity terms.... [A] wake-up call to recognize our desperate need to rediscover some intelligible way of talking about humanity., In his new book, Michael Sandel --the closest the world of political philosophy comes to a celebrity -- argues that we now live in a society where 'almost everything can be bought and sold.' As markets have infiltrated more parts of life, Sandel believes we have shifted from a market economy to 'a market society,' turning the world -- and most of us in it -- into commodities. And when Sandel proselytizes, the world listens.... Sandel's ideas could hardly be more timely., What Money Can't Buy is the work of a truly public philosopher. . . [It] recalls John Kenneth Galbraith's influential 1958 book, The Affluent Society. . . Galbraith lamented the impoverishment of the public square. Sandel worries about its abandonment--or, more precisely, its desertion by the more fortunate and capable among us. . .[A]n engaging, compelling read, consistently unsettling. . . it reminds us how easy it is to slip into a purely material calculus about the meaning of life and the means we adopt in pursuit of happiness., To understand the importance of [Sandel's] purpose, you first have to grasp the full extent of the triumph achieved by market thinking in economics, and the extent to which that thinking has spread to other domains. This school sees economics as a discipline that has nothing to do with morality, and is instead the study of incentives, considered in an ethical vacuum. Sandel's book is, in its calm way, an all-out assault on that idea.... Let's hope that What Money Can't Buy , by being so patient and so accumulative in its argument and its examples, marks a permanent shift in these debates., Praise for Michael Sandel and What Money Can''t Buy: "Provocative and intellectually suggestive. . . amply researched and presented with exemplary clarity, [it] is weighty indeed-little less than a wake-up call to recognise our desperate need to rediscover some intelligible way of talking about humanity."-Rowan Williams, Prospect "Brilliant, easily readable, beautifully delivered and often funny. . . an indispensable book."-David Aaronovitch, Times "Entertaining and provocative."-Diane Coyle, Independent "Poring through Harvard philosopher Michael Sandel''s new book. . . I found myself over and over again turning pages and saying, ''I had no idea.'' I had no idea that in the year 2000. . . ''a Russian rocket emblazoned with a giant Pizza Hut logo carried advertising into outer space,'' or that in 2001, the British novelist Fay Weldon wrote a book commissioned by the jewelry company Bulgari. . . I knew that stadiums are now named for corporations, but had no idea that now ''even sliding into home is a corporate-sponsored event''. . . I had no idea that in 2001 an elementary school in New Jersey became America''s first public school ''to sell naming rights to a corporate sponsor.''"-Thomas Friedman, New York Times "A vivid illustration ... Let''s hope that What Money Can''t Buy , by being so patient and so accumulative in its argument and its examples, marks a permanent shift in these debates."-John Lanchester, Guardian "In a culture mesmerised by the market, Sandel''s is the indispensable voice of reason. . . if we. . . bring basic values into political life in the way that Sandel suggests, at least we won''t be stuck with the dreary market orthodoxies that he has so elegantly demolished."- John Gray, New Statesman " What Money Can''t Buy is replete with examples of what money can, in fact, buy. . . Sandel has a genius for showing why such changes are deeply important."-Martin Sandbu, Financial Times "Sandel is a political philosopher who makes us think about what it means to be good."-Andrew Anthony, The Guardian "Ed Miliband has been reading What Money Can't Buy: The Moral Limits of Markets , Michael Sandel's elegant and provocative critique of ''the era of market triumphalism.'' According to the Harvard professor, ''Our only hope of keeping markets in their place is to deliberate openly and publicly about the meaning of the goods and social practices we prize. . . the question of markets is really a question about how we want to live together.'' It is no surprise that this particular monograph should appeal to the Labour leader at this particular moment, when precisely the same questions - and more besides - are being confronted, for the highest stakes, across a continent."-Matthew d''Ancona, Evening Standard "What Mr. Sandel does not offer is prescriptions for rolling back the clock. He is such a gentle critic that he merely asks us to open our eyes. . .Yet What Money Can''t Buy makes it clear that market morality is an exceptionally thin wedge."-Jonathan V. Last, The Wall Street Journal "Sandel is probably the world's most relevant living philosopher, thanks to the hugely popular course he teaches at Harvard, 'Justice' . . . To make his argument Sandel stays focused on the everyday; he's a practical philosopher. He asks what it says about us that we employed more mercenaries than U.S. soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan? What about the idea that we should sell immigration rights? Does that cheapen the idea of citizenship?"-Michael Fitzgerald, Newsweek "There is no more fundamental question we face than how to best preserve the common good and build strong communities that benefit everyone. Sandel''s book is an excellent starting place for that dialogue."-Kevin J. Hamilton, The Seattle Times "Sandel. . . sounds the alarm that the belief in a market economy diminishes moral thought. . . An exquisitely reasoned, skillfully written treatise on big issues of everyday life."- Kirkus Review, Poring through Harvard philosopher Michael Sandel's new book. . . I found myself over and over again turning pages and saying, 'I had no idea.' I had no idea that in the year 2000, 'a Russian rocket emblazoned with a giant Pizza Hut logo carried advertising into outer space.'. . .

I had no idea that in 2001 an elementary school in New Jersey became America's first public school 'to sell naming rights to a corporate sponsor.' Why worry about this trend? Because, Sandel argues, market values are crowding out civic practices., One of the leading political thinkers of our time.... Sandel's new book is What Money Can't Buy: The Moral Limits of Markets , and I recommend it highly. It's a powerful indictment of the market society we have become, where virtually everything has a price., Praise for Michael Sandel and What Money Can''t Buy: "Provocative and intellectually suggestive. . . amply researched and presented with exemplary clarity, [it] is weighty indeed - little less than a wake-up call to recognise our desperate need to rediscover some intelligible way of talking about humanity."-Rowan Williams, Prospect "Brilliant, easily readable, beautifully delivered and often funny. . . an indispensable book."-David Aaronovitch, Times "Entertaining and provocative."-Diane Coyle, Independent "Poring through Harvard philosopher Michael Sandel''s new book. . .

Synopsis

In What Money Can't Buy, renowned political philosopher Michael J. Sandel rethinks the role that markets and money should play in our society. Should we pay children to read books or to get good grades? Should we put a price on human life to decide how much pollution to allow? Is it ethical to pay people to test risky new drugs or to donate their organs? What about hiring mercenaries to fight our wars, outsourcing inmates to for-profit prisons, auctioning admission to elite universities, or selling citizenship to immigrants willing to pay? In his New York Times bestseller What Money Can't Buy , Michael J. Sandel takes up one of the biggest ethical questions of our time: Isn't there something wrong with a world in which everything is for sale? If so, how can we prevent market values from reaching into spheres of life where they don't belong? What are the moral limits of markets? Over recent decades, market values have crowded out nonmarket norms in almost every aspect of life. Without quite realizing it, Sandel argues, we have drifted from having a market economy to being a market society. In Justice , an international bestseller, Sandel showed himself to be a master at illuminating, with clarity and verve, the hard moral questions we confront in our everyday lives. Now, in What Money Can't Buy , he provokes a debate that's been missing in our market-driven age: What is the proper role of markets in a democratic society, and how can we protect the moral and civic goods that markets do not honor and money cannot buy?, A renowned political philosopher rethinks the role that markets and money should play in our society Should we pay children to read books or to get good grades?
