Reviews

Killmister's book provides a fresh and stimulating conception of dignity. It opens the door to novel and, I think, productive ways of theorizing about a diverse array of dignitarian and related moral phenomena. . . . moral philosophers will benefit from considering the theoretical possibilities opened up by her account, as I have. * J. Rozeboom, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews *
