Reviews

This set of essays, individually and as a group, offer a very strong, diversified yet coherent treatment of a crucial question for economic ethics - moral causality in complex market relationships. I would find this volume very helpful for my own research and writing in economic ethics, and could foresee assigning it to advanced undergraduates or graduates in courses on economic ethics, or Catholic/Christian social thought. --Christine Firer Hinze, Fordham University
