The authors offer a detailed critical analysis of the neuroscience of morality, arguing that it gives a reductive account of the human, profoundly shaped by neoliberal economic thought. The book is at once an incisive and provocative critique of current neuroscience and a call for a more humane cultural conversation about what it means to be human. * Neil Messer, Professor of Theology, University of Winchester, UK * This book is a tour de force, offering a detailed analysis of the neuroscience of morality in relation to neoliberal economic thought.
