The Book on Contemporary Issues

The only plausable philosophy for the 21st century is found in Jan Narveson's "Moral Matters." Its excellent use of realistic examples and simple language can be appreciated by both philosophers and non-philosophers. Narveson cuts straight to the Libertarian arguments, and in a "no-holds-barred" style persuedes even the greatest skeptic. Narveson gives the reader the facts on real life issues such as suicide, abortion, war, and sexual harassment. Narveson is the foremost authority on the libertarian idea. From Kant to Nozick, all predisesors will now take a back seat to this contemporary genius. "Moral Matters" will turn every reader into a libertarian. No library, be it public or personal, is complete without a copy of Jan Narveson's "Moral Matters."
