In order to understand how our lives and our world are shaped and how this might be reflected in our economic and financial systems, the author turns to a number of leading thinkers from classical Greece to the present day. She finds that important ideas associated with thinkers and writers of the past have often been partially (mis)represented or else interpreted and highlighted so as to appear to endorse a particular approach or point of view. Inconvenient gems that have been forgotten need to be recovered. She refers to a wide range of writers from different disciplines: conservative as well as forward thinking, religious and not. Some may seem outdated or inconsequential. Some are in the news now. The book proposes that we explore an imagined ideal that will restore humanism, a dignified vision of life that has the relational aspect of our lives at its heart.
