Martha C. Nussbaum is the author of numerous watershed books and articles concerning moral, legal, and political philosophy, including The Fragility of Goodness, Sex and Social Justice, and Cultivating Humanity. The Ernst Freund Distinguished Service Professor of Law and Ethics at the University of Chicago, her scores of honors include the 2016 Kyoto Prize in Arts and Philosophy, 62 honorary degrees, and the Berggruen Prize, perhaps the greatest accolade a public intellectual can receive. In her latest book, Nussbaum explores the pride-driven sexual violence and misogyny perpetrated by the men who hold power in institutions like courts, sports, and the arts.
