Publisher Description: Leading thinkers are saying it is time for a new economic model and Smith proposes one. Readers will learn about: -The history of our current economic values;-How patriarchal capitalism led to environmental damage, profits at the cost of illness and death, and huge disparities in wealth;-How well-being values can be used to address current issues; and-The steps we need to take to change the economic model for a healthier you and world. Smith proposes that legally and socially adopting well-being values is the logical next step in addressing current economic, environmental and public health crises. He is excited and hopeful about the emerging new economy.Smith's training in theology and care combined with his experience in government, and the private and not-for-profit sectors gives him a unique perspective on the issues of our day. He earned a BA and a Master of Divinity and worked for more than two decades in corporate communications. And, he taught applied ethics of care.Is there an alternative to patriarchal capitalism? Smith says yes Will you? |
