Rezensionen

'A monumental study of a monumental theorist. This invaluable resource engages with Rawls's work at every level: it's an exposition, it's a critique, and most important it projects an understanding of Rawls's work into the future of political philosophy. On very page, Professor Freeman's attention to detail is suffused by his awareness of the overall structure of the theory and the philosophical significance of Rawls's grand strategy.' - Jeremy Waldron, New York University School of Law, USA

'Sympathetic, comprehensive, thorough, and accessible' - Leif Wenar, University of Sheffield, UK

'The best introduction to the subject available.' -- Matthew Yglesias
