Reflections on Commercial Life; An Anthology of Classic Texts from Plato to the Present
Editorial Reviews
Robert C. Solomon, University of Texas, Austin
"Patrick Murray's Reflections on Commercial Life is one of the most valuable books on my bookshelves devoted to business, business ethics, and economics. It is a densely-packed treasury of selections from the great thinkers of history on the topics of money, exchange, and commerce."
Robert Heilbroner, The New School for Social Research
"[Patrick Murray] tells us that, although we live in a commercial society, we understand it as little as fish do water. In this remarkable book he investigates what the idea of such a society has meant to an extraordinary gathering including Plato and Aquinas, Veblen and Arendt, and of course Adam Smith and Marx."
