Andrea Sangiovanni rejects the view that human dignity is grounded in our capacities for reason, love, etc. Rather than focus on the basis for equality, we should focus on inequality: Why and when is it wrong to treat others as inferior? Moral equality, he writes, is best explained by a rejection of cruelty. Num Pages: 286 pages. BIC Classification: HPS. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 23 x 15. .
