Moral Philosophy and Moral Education

Philosophy

“Professor Bayer's book is philosophical thought at its best. It is clearly and elegantly written, consistently rendering complex ideas comprehensible without compromising their meaning. Her study brings together culture, education, and moral theory in terms of the perennial philosophical ideal of self-knowledge. It does so by taking the reader through the treasure-house of the great traditions of Italian Humanism and German Idealism. This is a unique and rewarding work in every sense.”

Technique, Discourse, and Consciousness

Philosophy

“Lovekin is the leading representative of the philosophical interpretation of Ellul's concept of technique as the basis of modern society. He expertly takes the reader through Ellul's demonstration of the transposition of thought from the pursuit of the summum bonum to thought as the production of an ensemble of means that constantly expands itself and from which there is no exit.”
