Author Description

We inhabit a world of differences--cultural, religious, moral, philosophical. The question that preoccupies the contributors to this volume is whether the fact of difference--plurality--inevitably leads to the conclusion that there cannot be a single truth, even in moral matters. The collection brings together a wide variety of contributors with different backgrounds and distinctive skills and attitudes to explore the implications of plurality, and no reader will be left in any doubt that the issues are fundamental ones.
