Description
Samuel Scheffler's collection of essays explores the complex relationships between human values, moral theory, and social and political controversies. The book delves into fundamental questions about the nature of valuing, the role of partiality in ethics, and the significance of the distinction between doing and allowing. Scheffler examines the tensions that arise from the diversity of human values, and how liberal political theory attempts to resolve conflicts between these values.
