This volume, modeled after those published in The Library of Living
Philosophers, attempts to provide a coherent statement of the work
of Abraham Edel in moral and political theory, and on the impact of
his work on such diverse areas as education, law, and social
science. The methodological element of Edel's work is to see
ethical and social theory in the full context of human life;
specifically how twentieth-century modes of analysis impact
classical concerns about right and wrong, good and evil.The volume
is tightly integrated from start to finish, and has the benefit of
Edel's thoughtful and thoroughgoing response to critics. In short,
while this work is a tribute to the work of a scholar, it aims to
serve as a basic guide through the labyrinthian world of
contemporary ethical theory and social practice.Contents: Beryl
