Inequality and Christian Ethics

'Douglas Hicks tackles economic problems as well as theological ones. This is a hard combination, and he draws both on sophisticated economic arguments about the nature of social organisation and on the implications of modern as well as traditional Christian ethics for how society should be organised and for the division between individual and social responsibilities. The result is an impressive study which will attract the attention of economists in addition to that of theologians interested in social problems.' Amartya Sen, Master of Trinity College, Cambridge, and Nobel Prize Winner (Economics) '... wide-ranging and carefully argued ... This book makes a valuable contribution to the debate.'
