Dworkin was a very clear writer. Loved the style. The substance is fascinating. Makes me wish all philosophers wrote in this tone.

Ronald Dworkin seems to be pleading for the introduction of common sense into the political debate in our Country, but any immediate resolution seems far down the road. Overall, I felt this was a somewhat uninspired, boring discussion of underlying principles which could lead to reaching agreement by those on the left and those on the right, and thereby lead to a functioning democracy instead of the partisan divide we presently have in Washington D.C.

Justice for Hedgehogs has a picture of a hedgehog on it. The image is quite adorable but that is not the point that the author is trying to make. Written by Ronald Dworkin, Justice for Hedgehogs attempts to show that morality is not something one is capable of making compromises on while still being upstanding. The idea for the title is from a quote made famous by Isaiah Berlin. Foxes know a lot of things while hedgehogs know one big thing. The author argues that being ethical requires you to have a central tenet that you follow.

There isn't really much more to say without making this an essay so I won't go into specifics. The book was really enjoyable, 5 out of 5.
