"Chris Angle's Defining Ethics, Good & Evil blends three distinct modes into a successful and creative synthesis. First, in keeping with modern deontological approaches, Angle posits a single principle, respect, as the basis for ethical enquiry, and explores this principle through a surprising and satisfying variety of applications. Second, he couches the entire work in the classic form of the dialogue, which provides not only historical resonance but also undersc...

It concludes that beauty is not in the eye of the beh...

This book is an inquiry into the harms being done by untruthfulness in American popular political discourse today and how we might arrest them. Taking the form of claims and counterclaims, this untruthfulness is both accidental and intentional and is transmitted in a myriad of media outlets as well as (and especially) by politicians themselves. In turn, we, as consumers of these products, face the daunting task of separating truth from spin, hyperbole, half-truths, and outright prevaricati...
