Summary

This is a collection of the author's writings that centres on the idea of toleration, deftly applying the philosophical concept to issues in everyday life (religion, legislation on pornography). Drawing on works from Locke and Mill to contemporary philosophers, the author also discusses notions of justice, democracy, freedom, and autonomy in this down-to-earth and highly accessible book.

Author Biography

Ten Chin Liew is professor of philosophy and heads the Department of Philosophy at the National University of Singapore.
