Moral Decision: Right and Wrong in the Light of American Law - Edmond Nathaniel Cahn - Hardcover - New Midland Book ed

Originally published in 1955, The Moral Decision remains today a fresh, lively, and literate quest for moral guides in the American system of law. Each topic is introduced with a real courtroom case followed by a summary of the uncontroverted facts, the issues before the court, the judge's opinion, and Edmond Cahn's objective and penetrating discussion of the ethical issues involved. The cases chosen operate as prisms, revealing an entire spectrum of moral forces -- personal ambitions, group standards, lusts, sufferings, and ideals. A new foreword by Norman Redlich, Dean of the New York University School of Law, affirms the value of The Moral Decision as an authoritative and humane introduction to law and morality.Cahn, Edmond is the author of 'Moral Decision: Right and Wrong in the Light of American Law - Edmond Nathaniel Cahn - Hardcover - New Midland Book ed' with ISBN 9780253338754 and ISBN 0253338751.
