Reviews / Votes
"In this thought-provoking, rewarding, and accessible volume, Anthony Cunningham boldly confronts the negative associations we might attach to the idea of honour and shows convincingly that none of these in any way damns the concept as such. In their place, Cunningham carefully builds up a defence of honour as a fundamental aspect of our nature as social beings and a notion that deserves to reclaim a central place in our thinking about the kind of people we want to be." --Douglas Cairns, author of Aidos: The Psychology and Ethics of Honour and Shame in Ancient Greek Literature"Bernard Williams brought our attention to the much neglected concept of shame in our ethical thinking. Now Anthony Cunningham does the same for an equally neglected concept, the concept of honor." --George W. Harris, author of Reason's Grief: An Essay on Tragedy and Value
"Cunningham ably defends honor as a relevant social virtue in modern societies. The book is written in a lively and readable style. Summing Up: Highly recommended."--C.R. McCall, Elmira College, USA in Choice

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Adobe-DRM, a „hard” copy protection. If the necessary requirements are not met, unfortunately you will not be able to open the eBook. You will therefore need to prepare your reading hardware before downloading.
