ETHICS, SOCIAL AND POLITICAL PHILOSOPHY READING GROUP: 

Hi Folks!

We decided at the last meeting to tackle a recent volume that's just come out in paperback. It's based on presentations at FEAST (Feminist Ethics and Social Policy) conferences. We'll start off with Chapters 7 and 8. I've pasted in a full table of contents below.
Here are details about the meeting.

Date: Thursday, August 12th

Time: 2 P.M.

If you would like to attend, please email Anne Donchin at adonchin@iupui.edu
