  This book examines the resurgence of interest in ethics in the academic world. The text of the 1992 Prideaux lectures, it argues that in a postmodern society, distinctive moral communities are particularly crucial for understanding goodness beyond self-interest. This claim, in return, has important implications for Christian ethics and for the Churches, even within an apparently secular world. This book is aimed at all levels in the academic disciplines of philosophy, theology and sociology; the clergy and those interested in Christian ethics.
