Viac o knihe

The invisible hand represents the forces of supply and demand in competitive markets. The invisible heart represents the family values of love, responsibility, and reciprocity. The invisible hand is about material achievements. The invisible heart is about caring for others. The hand and heart are interdependent and yet in conflict. The only way to establish a balance between them is to find appropriate ways to reward those who care for others. This is not an issue that economists or businesspeople take seriously. They generally assume that God, nature, family, and the "supermother"—or a combination of all of these—will automatically provide all the care that is needed. This book explains why this assumption is completely wrong and that the quantity and quality of care for others are under increasing economic pressure.
