About the Author:
Margaret Urban Walker is Associate Professor of Philosophy at Fordham University. She has written numerous articles for journals, including Ethics, Hypatia and The Journal of Value Inquiry.
Review:
"Walker's book challenges all of us to reflect on how ethics are inextricably connected to psychology, sociology, history adn anthropology. Her book would... be especially appropriate for upper-level moral or feminist philosophy classes where nontraditional approaches to ethics are emphasized."
-Marcia L. Homiak, "Signs, Spring 2001
"Walker provides a devastating critique of the gender, race, class, and other biases endemic to the theoretical-juridical model assumed in most nonfeminist ethics.Her own expressive-collaborative ethics of responsibility offers a persuasive alternative not only to the theoretical-juridical model but also to the ethics of care as that has been construed in many feminist discussions. Presenting feminist ethics in a somewhat unexpected light, this profound and original book reaches new levels of theoretical insight and moral understanding..""
