Politics is often characterized as the "art of compromise"--the
implication being that compromise is desirable and that insight,
imagination, discipline, and skill are all necessary for a
satisfactory and successful compromise. Compromise in ethics,
however, is quite another matter: there, it is usually regarded as
a sign of weakness or lack of integrity. From Socrates and Sir
Thomas More to Gandhi, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and Martin Luther
King, Jr., we revere these men and women not only for the nature of
their convictions but also for their unwavering refusal to
compromise.
Does this point to an important difference between politics and
ethics? Martin Benjamin here explores, in the first book-length
treatment, the surprisingly rich and complex notion of compromise
and integrity in ethics and politics. With wide-ranging examples
drawn from Tolstoy to Ralph Nader and from a variety of medical and
bioethical cases Benjamin presents in a clear, straightforward
fashion an examination of the interplay between compromise and
integrity.
In the process, Benjamin tackles tough questions--the
relationship between practical and theoretical ethics, what
compromise means for ethical theory, how moral judgments affect
compromise, and whether it is possible to compromise without being
compromised. In the final chapter Benjamin explores the possibility
of political compromise in a matter of great ethical
significance--abortion.

This book engages the problem of evil from a variety of
philosophical viewpoints, traditions, methodologies, and interests.
For millennia, philosophers, theologians, and people outside of the
academy have thought about evil and its relation to religious
belief. The Problem of Evil: New Philosophical Directions aims to
take this history of thought into evil while also extending the
discourse in other directions; providing a multi-faceted collection
of papers that take heed of the various ways one can think about
evil and what role in may play in philosophical considerations of
religion. From the nature of evil to the well-known problem of evil
to the discussion of the problem in philosophical discourse, the
collection provides a wide range of philosophical approaches to
evil. Anyone interested in evil-its nature, relation to religious
belief, its use in philosophical discussion, and so on-will find
the papers in this book of interest.

Academic philosophy has become so technical and inbred that it
often fails to connect with the questions and concerns of educated
nonspecialists. Martin Benjamin aims to bridge this gap.
Presupposing little or no formal background, Philosophy & This
Actual World addresses general questions of knowledge, reality,
mind, will, and ethics, as well as more specific questions about
moral pluralism, assisted suicide, the nature of death, and life's
meaning. At the same time, it incorporates the advances of academic
philosophers like Wittgenstein, Rorty, Putnam, and Rawls, making it
equally as valuable to the scholar as to the philosophically
uninitiated.
