Reviews
Philappa Foot's Natural Goodness has been long awaited. It is her first book, and it comes after a long and distinguished career in ethics ... Natural Goodness turns out to have been well worth waiting for ... its richness and the depth of its awareness of philosophical issues would repay the reading of anyone seriously interested in ethics. * Mind *
A short and beautifully pellucid philosophical study. * Times Literary Supplement *
Natural Goodness is an exciting and provoking book, more interesting than most books in moral philosophy ... What she has given us both in this book and elsewhere deserves nothing but intellectual and moral gratitude.' * Alasdair MacIntyre, Philosophical Quarterly *
For those of us who feel that bioethics is rather unphilosophical today, Foot's work is a welcome challenge and support in remedying that defect. * Medicine, Healthcare and Philosophy *
