Maps a new frontier in moral philosophy and political theory
Distills a new concept of justice that recognizes the iniquities of capitalism
Synthesis of elements of Marxism and Liberalism will interest readers in both camps
Direct and jargon-free style opens these complex ideas to a wide readership
