A new volume of philosophical essays by Bernard Williams. The book
is a successor to Problems of the Self, but whereas that volume
dealt mainly with questions of personal identity, Moral Luck
centres on questions of moral philosophy and the theory of rational
action. That whole area has of course been strikingly reinvigorated
over the last deacde, and philosophers have both broadened and
deepened their concerns in a way that now makes much earlier moral
and political philosophy look sterile and trivial. Moral Luck
contains a number of essays that have contributed influentially to
this development. Among the recurring themes are the moral and
philosophical limitations of utilitarianism, the notion of
integrity, relativism, and problems of moral conflict and rational
choice. The work presented here is marked by a high degree of
imagination and acuity, and also conveys a strong sense of
psychological reality. The volume will be a stimulating source of
ideas and arguments for all philosophers and a wide range of other
readers.
