"One of the most interesting features of the book is Kellenberger's attempt to show how standard notions such as rights, obligations, and virtues are recast and defended from the point of view of relationship morality. This is needed because, if he is right, the existing moral absolutist accounts are unsatisfactory and the challenge issued by moral relativism is unmet.... The audience for the work extends far beyond moral philosophers. It will interest political theorists, anthropologists, theologians, and sociologists. It ranges across moral thought, religious reflection, feminism, and ethnography. And because it is written plainly and is rich with illustrations, it could be suitable as a text in advanced undergraduate and graduate classes. It is also accessible to a general audience, provided it is literate and is willing to think hard about moral issues."
