Light wear. Some rubbing to jacket. Pages unmarked. 299 p., 21 cm. "This book deals boldly and constructively with the predicaments in which ethical thinking now finds itself. The belief that we can achieve reliable knowledge of good and bad, of right and wrong, has been assaulted from many quarters in the 20th century intellectual scene. Not only has it been challenged by certain tendencies in psychology, anthropology, religious mysticism and politics, but powerful attacks have been made by such philosophical movements as existentialism, logical positivism and the post-war Oxford philosophy. Philip Blair Rice deals objectively but critically with these developments in contemporary thought, believing that they have forced us to rethink our conceptions of practical reason and to explore anew the relationship between the rational and the irrational.".
