Moral Dilemmas

by Philippa Foot

This volume gathers the best of Foot's work from the late 1970s to the 1990s. In this collection, she develops further her critique of the dominant ethical theories of the last 50 years, discussing such topics as the nature of moral judgement, practical rationality, and the conflict of virtue
with desire and self-interest. Moral Dilemmas , alongside her other two books, completes the summation of Foot's contribution to 20th-century moral philosophy.
