About this audiobook

In 1860 John Ruskin wrote four essays on money, work and wealth, and the magazine that printed them was forced to stop. He argues that the economics of his day is wrong about what a person is worth and what a good society owes the poor. The title comes from a parable in the Bible: unto this last, as unto thee. Ruskin asks what wealth really is, and what justice in business would look like. Read by Wayne Champion in a little over two and a half hours. For readers curious about the book that Gandhi later admired.
