The book makes a very thoughtful, and comparative study of the virtues of government and the virtues of market actors respectively. When they are confounded, there will be problems. This has been a growing problem, as governments have increasingly outsourced parts of their activities to market actors. Thus, the book points to a major reason of the economic meltdown in 2008. It also clarifies why governments have been unable to take decisive action to address the climate change problem, which may soon hit a turning point, and enter a self-sustaining escalation. It is a book a wish every voter should read before the next election.
