Equality and Partiality cover

This collection of essays, based on the Locke Lectures that Nagel delivered at Oxford University in 1990, addresses the conflict between the claims of the group and those of the individual. Nagel attempts to clarify the nature of the conflict - one of the most fundamental problems in moral and political theory - and concludes that its reconciliation is the essential task of any legitimate political system.

Thomas Nagel is just about the most interesting philosopher of our day ... [his] deftness of touch and delicacy of intellectual imagination are exactly what the subject demands. * Alan Ryan, Times Literary Supplement *
