Categories:
"A wonderfully perceptive and sharply argued meditation on injustice."?Michael Walzer, Institute for Advanced Study
"A provocative meditation on the meaning and the scope of human injustice?its varieties, its relation both to human psychology and to social and economic inequality."?Martha Nussbaum, New Republic
"An interesting, useful, and provocative exercise in moral philosophy."?Choice
"This book is a well-written, insightful analysis of the various dimensions of injustice."?Margaret Moore, Canadian Journal of Political Science
"Her provocative and wonderfully original essay argues that philosophy and common sense alike have failed to give injustice its due. . . . Shklar's book makes a number of important and highly original arguments about the nature of injustice and the political institutions we construct to deal with it. . . . The Faces of Injustice is just as valuable for the new questions it forces us to ask ourselves as for the insightful arguments it explicitly presents."?Bernard Yack, Michigan Law Review
"[The book] is rich, thoughtful, and provocative. . . . It challenges one to think in fresh ways about fundamental issues."?John Horton, Political Studies
"An extraordinarily provocative work."?Shirley Castelnuovo, Perspectives on Political Science
"Shklar deals with hugely important issues which have for too long been swept under the carpet of analytic philosophy, and she does an inestimable service in forcing us to confront the realities of life outside the confines of philosophical theories. . . . Her book deserves to be as influential as it is stimulating."?Susan Mendus, Utilitas
"These reflections on injustice by a distinguished political theorist are passionate, personal and admirably well-written. There are vivid examples from history, literature and contemporary events and art.. . . This book makes us pay attention to victims of many kinds, and raises questions that are not often enough discussed about moral psychology and moral sentiments."?Judith Baker, Dialogues
