Value(s). Building a better world for all. Mark Carney. 2021. 978-1-5417-6871-0. I have been impressed with Carney’s career ((from Ft Smith, NWT to Governor of Bank of England and now his Un posting wrto Climate Change. The book is thorough, deeply researched and timely. His chapters on Climate change and Covid are worthwhile reading for all of us. His explanations on how we got here to present and different definitions of value are prescient. It should be required reading for all politicians and bureaucrats. He is a straight shooter and you can see how he could guide Canada through the financial crisis and the UK to be prepared for Brexit. He is a thinker and a planner. He would be a stellar PM for Canada but I doubt he would take on the job. The book is engaging, and not trivial.
