{"product_id":"macintyre-reader","title":"MacIntyre Reader","description":"Alasdair MacIntyre is one of the most controversial philosophers and social theorists of our time. He opposes liberalism and postmodernism with the teleological arguments of an updated Thomistic Aristotelianism. It is this tradition, he claims, which presents the best theory so far about the nature of rationality, morality and politics. \u003cp\u003eThis is the first \u003ci\u003eReader\u003c\/i\u003e of MacIntyre's work. It includes extracts from and synopses of two famous books from the 1980s, \u003ci\u003eAfter Virtue\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eWhose Justice? Which Rationality?,\u003c\/i\u003e as well as the whole of several shorter works (one published for the first time in English) and two interviews. Taken together, these constitute not only a representative collection of his work but also the most powerful and accessible presentation of his arguments yet available.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe \u003ci\u003eReader\u003c\/i\u003e also includes a summary, by the editor, of the development of MacIntyre's central ideas, and an extensive guide to further reading. Students will find the book a useful guide to MacIntyre's case against both capitalist institutions and academic orthodoxies.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"John Wiley and Sons Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54257714200920,"sku":"9780745619750","price":25.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780745619750.jpg?v=1778582717","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/macintyre-reader","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
