Ethics & moral philosophy
Paperback. Evaluates modernity's wager, namely, the gambit to liberate the modern individual from external social and religious norms by supplanting them with the rational self as its own moral authority. This book argues that 'the fundamentalist doctrine of enlightened reason has called into being its own nemesis' in the forms of ethnic and racial politics.

Hardcover. Dale Dorsey considers one of the most important questions in philosophical ethics: to what extent do the demands of morality have authority over us and our lives? He defends a position that runs counter to the traditional view, and argues that we are not required to conform to moral demands. Furthermore, doing so can be (quite literally) wrong.
