EBOOK Sex and Social Justice

Growing out of Nussbaum's years of work with an international development agency        connected with the United Nations, and informed by her study of Aristotle and the        Stoics and the modern liberal thinkers Kant and Mill, this collection charts a        feminism that is deeply concerned with the urgent needs of women who live in hunger        and illiteracy, or under unequal legal systems. Sex and Social Justice will interest        a wide readership because of the public importance of the topics Nussbaum addresses        and the generous insight she shows in dealing with these issues. These essays offer        incisive reflections by one of our most important living philosophers.
