Robert P. George

Opis

In Making Men Moral, his 1995 book, George questioned the central doctrines of liberal jurisprudence and political theory. In his new work he extends his critique of liberalism, and also goes beyond it to show how contemporary natural law theory provides a superior way of thinking about basic problems of justice and political morality. Students as well as scholars in law, political science, and philosophy will find George's arguments stimulating, challenging, and compelling.

Recenzje

An impressive, sustained argument for the proposition that there are objective moral truths ... iluminating ... one need not agree with all of his responses to find the book instructive.
