English-Speaking Justice

George Grant's searching exploration of the meaning of justice in a society dominated by technology was first delivered as the Josiah Wood Lectures at Mount Allison University.

Grant's magnificent four-part meditation on justice sums up much that is central to his own thought, including a critique of modern liberalism, an analysis of John Rawls's Theory of Justice, and insights into the larger Western philosophical tradition.

Admirer's of Grant's landmark works Lament for a Nation, Technology and Empire, and Philosophy in the Mass Age, will welcome this new edition of English-Speaking Justice, containing a new introduction by Grant scholar Robin Lathangue of the University of New Brunswick. Newcomers to Grant's thought will discover Canada's most influential philosopher and social commentator.
