Abstract

With a rare combination of academic rigor and simplicity of language, Richard T. De George has produced a stimulating and well-reasoned analysis of a complex and controversial subject--the nature and limits of authority. The central thrust of the text is a pluralistic conception of authority, which enables both the author and the reader to see authority in its multi-faceted forms.
