Reason, Ethics, and Society: Themes From Kurt Baier, With His Responses

Since 1948, Kurt Baier has been producing some of our century's most stimulating, seminal, and meticulous work in ethics. His quest for a rational justification of morality has centered on the human predicament that although most of us want to live in association with others, we always find ourselves coming into conflict with one another.

"These challenging and ground-breaking essays together with Kurt Baier's careful and illuminating responses constitute contemporary moral theory at its very best". -- James P. Sterba University of Notre Dame
