Reviews
"Alasdair MacIntyre has done it again. . . . [He] delivers on his promise in After Virtue to develop an account of rationality and justice that is tradition specific. It is a long and complex book, but will repay any reader's labors. In this book MacIntyre tells the story of four traditions: the Aristotelian, the Augustinian, the Scottish, and the rise of the liberal tradition. His narrative shows the interaction of these in a manner that illumines our current intellectual and moral context. . . ." -- Commonweal, "MacIntyre's rich historical exposition displays all the erudition and philosophical subtlety that his readers have come to expect from his work. . . . [T]here is much to admire in MacIntyre's unflinching indictment of liberal modernity." --The New Criterion, "MacIntyre is widely informed and his story of developments in the traditions that he identifies is learned, interesting, and notably well-written." --London Review of Books  , "Alasdair MacIntyre has done it again. Here [he] delivers on his promise in After Virtue to develop an account of rationality and justice that is tradition specific. . . . What is so remarkable about MacIntyre's achievement is his ability to combine close historical analysis with philosophical argumentation while never losing his narrative line. . . . His analysis illumines our situation in an extraordinary manner." --Commonweal  , "Whose Justice? Which Rationality? is a work of signal importance ... [it] is usually convincing, always provocative, and has wide-reaching implications for the way we think about our historical moment." --Richard John Neuhaus, Commentary, "It is a step in the right direction, not of returning to some Catholic version of fundamentalist bibliotary, but of reading a Christian theologian and philosopher whose immense wisdom repays careful study by Christians and non-Christians alike." -- New Oxford Review, "MacIntyre is a master of the history of ideas. . . . [He] helps us to understand why so many people are stymied today in articulating beliefs that underlie their traditions of inquiry, practice, and public discourse." --Commentary  , "MacIntyre's rich historical exposition displays all the erudition and philosophical subtlety that his readers have come to expect from his work. . . . [T]here is much to admire in MacIntyre's unflinching indictment of liberal modernity." -- The New Criterion, Alasdair MacIntyre has done it again.

Synopsis
Whose Justice? Which Rationality? , the sequel to After Virtue , is a persuasive argument of there not being rationality that is not the rationality of some tradition. MacIntyre examines the problems presented by the existence of rival traditions of inquiry in the cases of four major philosophers: Aristotle, Augustine, Aquinas, and Hume.

    Fantastic! The book is in precisely the condition described, as far as I can tell, not a mark anywhere! Woohoo!! Double packed inside bubble wrap and an online retailer sack, shipped super fast and arrived prior to the anticipated date. I exchanged a couple of email with the seller and the dialogue was great. An excellent transaction, excellent seller, and a dynamite addition to my library. A+++++++
