For anyone tempted to become a particularist, this book is a powerful deterrent."--Walter Sinnott-Armstrong, Dartmouth College "All in all, Principled Ethics is a highly stimulating read. It moves the particularism debate on to a whole new level of sophistication, raising the bar that needs to be jumped by particularists considerably higher. At the same time, it provides new insights into the nature and value of moral principles for those of us that avow a firm commitment to them."--Daniel Star, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
