Value(s): Climate, Credit, Covid and How We Focus on What Matters by Mark Carney - Non Fiction Paperback - Sunday Times Bestseller

Details Condition: BRAND NEW Format: Paperback ISBN: 9780008522025 Publisher: William Collins Overview Value(s) is Mark Carney's landmark examination of how modern economies have drifted from valuing what truly matters. Drawing on his experience leading the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England through the Global Financial Crisis and beyond, Carney explores climate change, credit crises, and the Covid pandemic to ask why society so often undervalues health, community and the environment. A Sunday Times bestseller, this brand new paperback is essential reading for understanding the forces reshaping the global economy and how markets and values can be realigned. About the Book In Value(s), Mark Carney draws on decades at the centre of global finance to interrogate a fundamental question: what do we truly value, and why does the market so rarely reflect it? Structured around four defining crises of the past twenty years — the Global Financial Crisis, the climate crisis, the crisis of credit, and the Covid-19 pandemic — the book charts how market economies gradually became market societies, where price is too often mistaken for worth. Carney argues that frontline workers, natural resources, and future generations are consistently undervalued by systems built to chase short-term returns. He examines how value is created, measured and misallocated, before offering a practical blueprint for reform. Written with the authority of someone who has sat inside the world's most powerful financial institutions, the book blends economic theory with first-hand insight into central banking, climate policy and crisis management. It is both a diagnosis of what has gone wrong and a call to action to rebuild an economy around sustainability, resilience and fairness, praised by figures from Christine Lagarde to Bono, and highly relevant given Carney's rise to Prime Minister of Canada.
