Book Synopsis


Trade Review
"This book is a major contribution that has about it the excitement that comes with addressing genuinely fresh issues. Examining the ethics of everyday life as they are embodied in speech and other kinds of action, its contributors stake out an important new area of research. Certain to have a great impact on anthropology, this is book that should also be widely read by those in all fields who take ethics to be an important topic of study." -- -Joel Robbins University of California, San Diego "A forceful demonstration of what anthropology has to contribute to debates about ethics within moral philosophy." -- -Charles Hirschkind University of California, Berkeley
