Rezensionen
"Highly recommended. Lower-level undergraduates through graduate students; general readers."
"David Johnston has given us what we have long lacked, a fine and readable account of the importance of justice, which focuses as much (or more) on the heritage of our thought about this matter as on the detail of the particular theories that have preoccupied philosophers for the past thirty years."
--Jeremy Waldron, Chichele Professor of Social and Political Theory, Oxford; and University Professor, NYU Law School
