"Among academic stars, Nussbaum is one of the brightest," writes one Publishers Weekly reviewer. One of America’s most influential philosophers, she is the Ernst Freund Distinguished Service Professor of Law and Ethics in the Philosophy Department, Law School, and Divinity School at the University of Chicago. With clarity and intelligence, Nussbaum has written on liberal education, feminism, and social justice, and the influence of emotion on society. Her award-winning books include Cultivating Humanity, Sex and Social Justice, and Hiding from Humanity. In Not for Profit the celebrated philosopher makes a passionate case for the reinstatement of the liberal arts at the center of all levels of education as a way to give students the capacity to be true democratic citizens.
