The Quest for a Moral Compass: A Global History of Ethics
by Kenan Malik, Melville House (2014)
The most inclusive, comprehensive survey available of humankind’s
search for ethical guidelines, covering 3,000 years of history and every
part of the globe. Consistently, Malik situates moral dicta in their immediate historical and cultural contexts: “… notions of right and wrong are
historically flexible. [But shifting notions of right and wrong] are related
to broader social, economic, political and intellectual shifts.”
