A great read – plenty of insufficiently supported arguments (just how good philosophy should be)! Read it to expand your understanding of contemporary morality.”

Others have tried but failed miserably. It is does come up a bit short, however, and many people have tried to extend it gracefully. McIntyre seems to do the job of adding to it quite well. ”

McIntyre is terrific - picks up i think where Aristotle leaves us - a terrific contemporary philosopher.... ”
