George Grant's searching exploration of the meaning of justice in a society dominated by technology was first delivered as the Josiah Wood Lectures at Mount Allison University.
Grant's magnificent four-part meditation on justice sums up much that is central to his own thought, including a critique of modern liberalism, an analysis of John Rawls's
Theory of Justice, and insights into the larger Western philosophical tradition.
Admirer's of Grant's landmark works
Lament for a Nation,
Technology and Empire, and
Philosophy in the Mass Age, will welcome this new edition of
English-Speaking Justice, containing a new introduction by Grant scholar Robin Lathangue of the University of New Brunswick. Newcomers to Grant's thought will discover Canada's most influential philosopher and social commentator.
