Explore the ethical limitations of modern economics and find ancient philosophies for a virtuous public policy. Donald G. Richards’ compelling analysis critiques standard economic theory’s narrow view of human motivation and societal well-being. This insightful volume advocates for rediscovering ancient Greek wisdom, particularly eudaimonia (human flourishing), to build a more robust framework for policy-making and a flourishing society. It offers crucial alternative ethical perspectives for economists, philosophers, and public policy professionals in India. An indispensable resource for students of economic theory, philosophy of economics, and history of economic thought.
