Moral Clarity is absolutely and utterly wonderful. I couldn't put it down, in every sense that matters. Lots of writing makes us want to be smarter, but it's the rare and precious writing that makes us want to be wiser, more interesting and more worthy, to pay better attention, to rise more often to the occasion, as we surely must in this day and age.
Wherever we may be on the political spectrum, we not only owe it to ourselves, but to those around us who live with our choices, to act with all the moral clarity we can muster. The perspective Susan Neiman offers us in Moral Clarity, with breathtaking depth and style, helps us immeasurably in the process: to size up the moral task at hand, and the surprising wealth of tools at our disposal, and to move forward together to meet it.
Everyone, in other words, bar none, should read and reread this book!
