Moral Prejudices Essays on Ethics

"Baier's book is likely to be widely read by moral philosophers in the next hundred years. Anscombe, MacIntyre, Schneewind, Williams, and other contemporary philosophers have expressed well-founded suspicions about the value of moral philosophy as it has been practiced in the English-speaking world since the days of Sidgwick. But Baier goes a step beyond these suspicions. It is her feminism and the attention which feminism brings with it to specific, concrete injustice, that have enabled her to do so. She offers not just suspicion, but an original, constructive, promising new account of the place of moral philosophy in culture.Baier, Annette C. is the author of 'Moral Prejudices Essays on Ethics' with ISBN 9780674587151 and ISBN 0674587154.
