In this book, Michael J. Sandel poses a fundamental ethical question: Is there something wrong with a world where everything is for sale? Sandel examines the moral limits of markets and how market values have displaced nonmarket norms in almost every aspect of life, including medicine, education, and personal relationships. The author argues that we have gone from having a market economy to being a market society, and explores the proper role of markets in a democratic society, seeking to protect the moral and civic goods that money cannot buy.
