Moral Economics From Prostitution to Organ Sales, What Controversial Transactions Reveal about How Markets Work

The book examines how societies regulate and morally justify transactions that many consider taboo—such as prostitution, organ sales, and other controversial exchanges. By analyzing these markets, it reveals the underlying economic principles that shape supply, demand, and pricing, while exploring the ethical dilemmas and policy implications of treating human bodies and intimate services as commodities. The work argues that understanding these transactions can illuminate broader market dynamics and challenge conventional views on what should be permissible in a free market.
