Description
Book SynopsisThis book emphasizes that analysis of broad economic changes treats people abstractly, while a personalist view sees them as human agents who, while needing and generating economic goods, must still be responsive to others and be aware of values and goals beyond temporal well-being.
Trade ReviewDanner's book is not utopian but neither is dystopian. His theory remains thoroughly economic, not ethical or theological, and thus provides a subtle and valuable reminder of the independent status of 'economic science' in the academy. * Theological Studies *
