More about the book
The book presents a compelling argument that Aristotle formulated a coherent theory regarding economic value, wealth, exchange, and money. However, it emphasizes that this theory cannot be reconciled with modern economics due to its distinct metaphysical foundations, which differ significantly from the human-centered metaphysics that underpin contemporary economic thought. This exploration challenges readers to reconsider the philosophical roots of economic concepts.
