## Description

What Money Can't Buy: The Moral Limits of Markets : Sandel, Michael J.: desertcart.in: Books

Review: Well written and thought provoking - The book has a good flow and deals with the overt commodification or commercialisation of aspects of life and the world wherein markets should not be morally present. The author - Michael Sandel, makes compelling arguments to make his case. You could agree or not agree with the author’s POV but one thing is certain that the points raised are certainly going top provoke deep thought on the moral dilemma discussed. Informative as well since so many aspects that have been commercialised and we as a society at large had no idea. The book concludes with needs for limits on market capitalism and argues some areas of one’s life are too sacred to be commercialised. On that I believe, we could all agree!. An engaging read that you are sure to enjoy.
Review: Excellent commentary on contemporary issues - Well, Mr Michael Sandel in his own characteristic style has continued to make us think on issues which directly affects us in one way or the other. Moreover, he is trying to draw line where money stops working. After "Justice-What's right thing to do" this is my second book and I am thrilled to read it. This is just unputdownable once you start it. He coerce you to take sides. He then convinces us with which is the right way and why. I would recommend it to anyone who loves to read about contemporary issues linked with philosophical aspects and principles. Thanks desertcart for delivering me this volume in short time.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Masterpiece exploring conflict between Markets and Morals
*by A***A on 3 July 2020*

Must read to understand the existing confilcts betweeen morality and markets. And also how in past the market, in almost all the cases, has been able to modify the morals to its own will. The Author sites all the possible examples to make home the point that eventhough most economists consider good unaffected by the markets, but in reality the market corrupt the goods and the values to make its way in hetherto unpaved areas. And a debate is necessary to what extent we are willing to give way to market to modify the morals. As always Micheal Sandale will not disappoint you. Best book which exploree this conflict. Just go for it. You will know that Micheal Sandale is famous for all the right reasons. Truely "A Rockstar" in Western Philosophy.
