Ignatieff has invoked the understanding, the wisdom, and the eloquence of some of the seminal thinkers in the Western tradition to help revive a sense of what we are or should be talking about when we talk about the needs of strangers. "Merle Rubin, Christian Science Monitor"
A very eloquent meditation . . . on what we need to be human and how in our society those 'with resources and those in need remain strangers to each other.' "Des Christy, The Guardian (London)"
Unusual, beautifully written and profoundly thoughtful. "Bernard Crick, New Statesman"
Ignatieff writes in urgent prose that even, at times, sounds a little evangelistic; and he will convince many people, in highly readable fashion, that the ideas being discussed really matter, that they are important to argue over; and that passion is admirable, because they do, and they are. "Salman Rushdie, Manchester Guardian Weekly""
