This timely book by philosopher Peter Dews explores the idea of
evil, one of the most problematic terms in the contemporary moral
vocabulary. * Surveys the intellectual debate on the nature of evil
over the past two hundred years * Engages with a broad range of
discourses and thinkers, from Kant and the German Idealists, via
Schopenhauer and Nietzsche, to Levinas and Adorno * Suggests that
the concept of moral evil touches on a neuralgic point in western
culture * Argues that, despite the widespread abuse and political
manipulation of the term evil , we cannot do without it * Concludes
that if we use the concept of evil, we must acknowledge its
religious dimension
