James Doyle shows that, when properly understood, Elizabeth Anscombe presents a major challenge to contemporary moral philosophy. This book will bring Anscombe’s thought to the forefront of ethical theory. -- Sergio Tenenbaum, University of Toronto\u003cbr\u003eJames Doyle brings out how radical and philosophically significant are Elizabeth Anscombe’s ideas, in his discussions of two of Anscombe’s best-known theses: that the term ‘moral’ as it occurs in such contexts as ‘moral obligation’ is a word of merely mesmeric force, and that ‘I’ is not an expression that refers to something. Critics of these two theses must now think carefully and take stock in light of Doyle’s arguments. This book is a major contribution to Anscombe studies. -- Roger Teichmann, University of Oxford","brand":"Harvard University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49403622818135,"sku":"9780674976504","price":31.41,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780674976504.jpg?v=1730484033","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/no-morality-no-self-9780674976504","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
