Help finding a book

[Thebuettners]

Charles recommended a book this weekend (4/28/2012), in St. Louis @ Christ The King Church - I missed the title but it was written by a secular author, and was about the concept of a moral economy. I'd like to read the book, but can't remember the title... Any ideas?
Thanks,
Jason

Thanks, Jason - I know he's been reading it and enjoying it a lot lately, but I can't remember the title. As soon as he returns, I'll get the title and post it for you here. In fact, I'm going to ask him to write a review of it. Elsewhere in this section are some other books he's recommended.

He has been reading more in the past two years than I've ever seen him read before.

We hope you and your family are doing well!

Thanks, I'll look forward to reading it. Btw - Very blessed to have Charles with us this weekend!

It's called "The Moral Foundation of Economic Behavior" by David C. Rose (Oxford University Press, 2011). Dad says it's very insightful, but not an easy read ... written by an economist in an economist's language. He says it's worth the work, though. I may see if I can get him to write a full-blown review of the book and we'll post it here!

He had a great time there in STL and returned home safely.

Perfect, thank you for the thorough description and picture! I'll trudge my way through it, and hope to get as much insight out of it as Charles did.
