Blackwell Public Philosophy

Edited by Michael Boylan, Marymount University

In a world of 24-hour news cycles and increasingly specialized knowledge,

the Blackwell Public Philosophy series takes seriously the idea that there is

a need and demand for engaging and thoughtful discussion of topics of

broad public importance. Philosophy itself is historically grounded in the

public square, bringing people together to try to understand the various

issues that shape their lives and give them meaning. This “love of wisdom” –

the essence of philosophy – lies at the heart of the series. Written in an

accessible, jargon-free manner by internationally renowned authors, each

book is an invitation to the world beyond newsflashes and soundbites and

into public wisdom.
