Bank of England's Mark Carney reads Justin Welby's book on the tube

by Aaron James

Mark Carney, a Catholic, has been spotted reading what seems to be Most Rev Justin Welby's new book for Lent 2017, called 'Dethroning Mammon: Making Money Serve Grace'.

Dethroning Mammon "reflects on the impact of our own attitudes, and of the pressures that surround us, on how we handle the power of money, called Mammon in this book."

It's synopsis goes on: "Archbishop Justin explores the tensions that arise in a society dominated by Mammon's modern aliases, economics and finance, and by the pressures of our culture to conform to Mammon's expectations.

"Following the Gospels towards Easter, this book asks the reader what it means to dethrone Mammon in the values and priorities of our civilisation and in our own existence."

Bloomsbury

It's Justin Welby's first full-length book and it's official paperback release date is 1 December 2016.

Mark Carney seems to have acquired an early release copy of the book.
