Jean Elshtain, God rest her soul, did not play games. She treated the questions of justice and human dignity to which she devoted her life with deadly seriousness and with all the moral and intellectual clarity they demanded. This magnificent, readable volume represents a fitting tribute to Elshtain's enormous vitality and humanity insofar as it beckons all of us to join the all-embracing conversation she carried on throughout her inspiring career.
