The value crisis : from dollars to democracy : why numbers are ruining our world / Andrew Welch. by Welch, Andrew. Aanimad Press, 2014. Call #: 330.0151 W439v Subjects Economic development -- Moral and ethical aspects.   Economic development -- Social aspects.   Economics -- Mathematical models.   Democracy. ISBN:  9780987910509 (pbk.) Edition:  1st ed. Description:  218 pages Summary:  Do you ever wonder why we resist doing the right thing? Why time and again, we choose economic growth over community well-being, or working endless hours over doing what we love? Andrew Welch offers a unique perspective on these questions, revealing how the unprecedented dominance of numbers and number-based values in our world has relegated our time-honoured human values to the wayside. This timely book explores human motivations, the power of numbers, and the role of value systems in our everyday lives. Through provocative insights, engaging personal anecdotes, and new theories, The Value Crisis shows us that by getting back to fundamental human values, we might just save our world.
