By Jonathan B. Wight

An author awaits in trepidation for reviews to come in.  Happily, George DeMartino did a wonderfully thoughtful analysis of Ethics in Economics: An Introduction to Moral Frameworks in the current edition of the Erasmus Journal for Philosophy and Economics.

DeMartino writes: “For the sake of the many students who have passed through my courses over the years, I only wish the book had appeared a decade or two earlier.”

Me too!  I wish I were a faster writer, but gestation time is also important for ideas to coalesce.  And a key idea of the book—pluralism in ethics—is controversial.  It took time for my courage to catch up with my convictions, and a lot of people deserve my thanks for that.
