Produktbeschreibung

Bloomsbury presents To Heal a Fractured World: The Ethics of Responsibility by Jonathan Sacks, read by Daniel Epstein Rabbi Sacks argues that preoccupation with self is a mistake and that ethics are concerned with the life we live together, talking with as much authority about Sigmund Freud or Karl Marx as he does about the Bible. With a new foreword by Rowan Williams. 'The only force equal to a fundamentalism of hate is a counter-fundamentalism of love.' Jonathan Sacks was an outstanding moral authority of our time and bestselling author of The Dignity of Difference. One of Judaism's most distinctive and challenging ideas is its ethics of responsibility. We have been given the gift of freedom and we in turn have to honour and enhance the freedom of others. More than in any previous generation, we have been tempted to imagine that it is the individual's needs which are the sole source of meaning. This is a clarion call to the outside world to come to its senses.
