Justice: What's the Right Thing to Do by Michael J. Sandel - Book Summary - Abbey Beathan

(Disclaimer: This is NOT the original book. )

A unique education in thinking through complicated issues we face in public life today.

Justice was initially a Harvard course but due to its popularity as one of the most highly attended in Harvard's history, Sandel decided to give us a book where all the wisdom he imparted on the course, could be given by this medium as well. Addressing a series of alternative theories of justice, Justice comes forth as an intricate and amusing philosophy book that talks about complicated topics and philosophical visions and break them down in a simple manner so anyone can easily read it.

(Note: This summary is wholly written and published by Abbey Beathan. It is not affiliated with the original author in any way)

"Self-knowledge is like lost innocence; however unsettling you find it, it can be 'unthought' or 'unknown'. " - Michael J. Sandel

Justice comes forth as philosophical journey of the best kind, surfing through theories from world class philosophers like Aristotle, Immanuel Kant, Robert Nozick and many more. With this book you'll have at your disposals the most accepted theories of justice and they will be made easy to digest for anybody, disregarding their knowledge on the topic. The most valuable thing about this book is that it saves you thousands of hours you could have spent reading about those theories, and have them all served to you in a silver platter by Sandel.

Take a philosophy course with one of the most recognized teachers on the subject.
