Annette Baier delivers an appeal for our fundamental moral
notions to be governed not by rules and codes but by trust: a moral
prejudice. Along the way, she gives us the best feminist philosophy
there is. Baier's topics range from violence to love, from cruelty
to justice, and are linked by a preoccupation with vulnerability
and inequality of vulnerability, with trust and distrust of equals,
with cooperation and isolation. Throughout, she is concerned with
the theme of women's roles. In this provocative exploration of the
implications of trusting to trust rather than proscription, Baier
interweaves anecdote and autobiography with readings of Hume and
Kant to produce an entertaining, challenging, and highly readable
book.
