THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
‘A radical book that speaks out accessibly’
BONO
‘Indispensable … This is the essential handbook’
CHRISTINE LAGARDE
‘A remarkably good read’
GILLIAN TETT, Financial Times
‘A landmark achievement’
WILL HUTTON, Observer
We are at a pivotal moment in the fight against climate change – with the ultimate opportunity to reassess what society values and how we can better respond to future crises.
This book asks why it is that the things we value most – from the environment to frontline workers to keeping children well fed and educated – are so often neglected by the market.
In Value(s), one of the great global thinkers of our time examines how what we value has become misaligned and how we can rethink and rebuild before it is too late.
Drawing on a truly international perspective, this book offers a blueprint for how we can channel the dynamism of the market to transform intractable global problems into opportunities. And in so doing build a better world for all.
Mark Carney's book 'Value(s)' was a Sunday Times bestseller w/c 15-03-2021.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
