Read by Tim Jackson

Care is the foundation of organic life. But its fate in the economy is precarious and uncertain. In our hearts its honoured as an irreducible good. But in the market its treated as a second-class citizen barely recognized in the relentless rush for productivity and wealth. How did we arrive in this dysfunctional place? And what can we do to change things? Renowned ecological economist Tim Jackson sets out to tackle these questions in a timely and deeply personal book. Irreverent, insightful and profoundly inquisitive, The Care Economy offers a bold and accessible manifesto for a healthier and more humane society
