Ethicist Thomas Murray traces graceful variations on the theme of parent/child relationships, one of the most morally perplexing quandaries of everyday life. Fortunately for the general reader, he gets down to actual cases, forsaking the precincts of abstract moral philosophy while providing a rich description of the issues of morality that parents and children experience every day. Placing an accessible, conversational style at the service of impressive learning, Murray manages to make his practical wisdom compelling reading both for parents and for ethicists, social and behavioral scientists, and legal theorists as well.
