Review of Metaphysics 54 (3):641-642 (2001)
  Copy   BIBTEX

Abstract

In this substantive book, Robert Adams distills and crystallizes much of his previous work into an impressive two-tiered ethical framework: a divine nature theory of the Good and a divine command theory of the morally obligatory. The result is an expansive, integrated, and sophisticated ethical theory that merits great attention. Four major parts comprise the book: The Nature of the Good, Loving the Good, The Good and the Right, and The Epistemology of Value.
