View submission: Suggestions for undergrad readings regarding economics and ethics?

View parent comment

It was a while ago, but the professor picked her book off of the title and her reputation. He wanted to do a seminar similar to what you're doing, I believe he titled it "A Philosophical Look at Markets." It wasn't that the book was bad. I believe our problem with the book was it felt like she should have went farther at times and just hedged a bit. At other times it felt rather banal. Some of the behavioral economics studies are really cool. Dan Ariely's *Predictably Irrational* has some studies that have moral implications. I can't really remember the other stuff we read because they were all papers or copied chapters.
