Omschrijving
'The project of founding morality not on changing human needs or wishes but on an immutable and absolute idea of goodness has been central to her thought.' - Mary Warnock, Women Philosophers
'The theme is the inadequacy of the account of human nature and value provided by contemporary, academic analytic philosophy. Murdoch's attack is the fruit of a thorough professional involvement with the school of thought to which she is opposed.' - Anthony Quinton, Sunday Telegraph
'All three essays which make up this book, The Idea of Perfection, On `God' and `Good', and The Sovereignty of Good over Other Concepts, are superb.' - The Guardian
'One of the very few modern books of philosophy which people outside academic philosophy find really useful.' - Mary Midgely
