Reviews
the arguments in Singer's short book are worth reviewing because they pose interesting questions about who we are and what we do - and perhaps especially so for health professionals who might think they already do a great deal for humanity. * Richard Horton, The Lancet *
Famine, Affluence and Morality, by a world renowned philosopher, is a must read, particularly for students and scholars of philosophy, sociology, and politics interested in world affairs, poverty and social justice. * International Dialogue, A Multidisciplinary Journal of World Affairs *
