Reviews

“A marvel of sophistication and articulateness and a wholly original take on amoralism as a viable option in ethics. Given the breadth and detail of argumentation, it could also serve as an excellent primer on moral theory. This book is suitable for undergraduate philosophy majors, graduate students, and philosophy researchers.” - Joel Marks, Professor Emeritus of Philosophy, University of New Haven.
