Book Synopsis Particularism and the Space of Moral Reasons by : Benedict Smith
Book excerpt: Particularism and the Space of Moral Reasons critically assesses the startling idea that our moral reasoning does not need to use moral principles. If we don't have principles, how do we work out what to do? This book examines 'moral particularism', a controversial idea at the forefront of contemporary moral theory.
