Moral Decision

<p>Originally published in 1955 <i>The Moral Decision </i>remains today a fresh lively and literate quest for moral guides in the American system of law. Each topic is introduced with a real courtroom case followed by a summary of the uncontroverted facts the issues before the court the judge's opinion and Edmond Cahn's objective and penetrating discussion of the ethical issues involved. The cases chosen operate as prisms revealing an entire spectrum of moral forces--personal ambitions group standards lusts sufferings and ideals. A new foreword by Norman Redlich Dean of the New York University School of Law affirms the value of <i>The Moral Decision</i> as an authoritative and humane introduction to law and morality.</p>
