Transaction Book Series

 

The Social Philosophy and Policy Center co-publishes, with Transaction Publishers, the book series Studies in Social Philosophy and Policy. Books in this series are intended for academics as well as for a nonacademic audience of policy makers, business people, print and broadcast journalists, and the general public. Each volume is written in a nontechnical style that combines moral analysis with empirical research on a particular policy issue. The authors go beyond theoretical discussions to offer practical remedies for existing and potential social problems.  To order these books, please visit the website of Transaction Publishers.
