“This is a good volume containing a considerable amount of recent original work on utilitarianism and related topics. It will be valuable to specialists in ethics but should interest many nonspecialists as well.”

“Anyone familiar with the relevant literature will benefit from these essays....Not only philosophers but also economists and other social scientists who are concerned with social choice theory and John Rawls’s work on justice are likely to be interested in this collection.”
