" ... Until 1997, however, there had not been an opportunity to bring members of the two constituencies togehter. It was with pleasure, therefore, that the Centre leanred of the Royal Institute of Philosophy's decision to support, as one of its annual conferences, a meeting in St. Andrews on the theme of Philosophy and Public Affairs. ... The papers given or developed out of it now appear here as a publication of the Royal Institute of Philosophy"--Page 5.

| Abstract
|
:
|
"This collection of new essays derives from a conference sponsored by the Royal Institute of Philosophy and the Centre of Philosophy and Public Affairs at the University of St Andrews. It brings together a number of prominent academics from the fields of philosophy and political theory along with politicians and social commentators. The subjects covered include liberalism, education, welfare policy, religion, art and culture, and cloning. The mix of contributors and the topicality of the subject matter should further promote a serious engagement between philosophy and public life."--Publisher's description.
