This book serves as a primer for CST, especially for those seeking clarification on the major themes of CST, distributive justice, and distributism. As previously mentioned, Hickey provides many thought-provoking proximal interconnections within CST themes as well as with CST and modern economics (especially in section one). On the whole, Hickey does a decent job setting the stage for “a new economy.”
