About this book

When Bernard Williams died in 2003, the Times newspaper hailed him 'as the greatest moral philosopher of his generation'. This outstanding collection of specially commissioned new essays on Williams's work is essential reading for anyone interested in Williams, ethics and moral philosophy and philosophy in general.
Reading Bernard Williams examines the astonishing scope of his philosophy from metaphysics and philosophy of mind to ethics, political philosophy and the history of philosophy. An international line up of outstanding contributors discuss, amongst others, the following central aspects of Williams's work:

Williams's challenge to contemporary moral philosophy and his criticisms of 'absolute' theories of morality
reason and rationality
the good life
the emotions
Williams and the phenomenological tradition
philosophical and political agency
moral and political luck
ethical relativism

Contributors : Simon Blackburn; John Cottingham; Frances Ferguson; Joshua Gert; Peter Goldie; Charles Guignon; Sharon Krause; Christopher Kutz; Daniel Markovits; Elijah Millgram; Martha Naussbaum; Carol Rovane
