Books by Michael J. (University of North Carolina Zimmerman

Michael Zimmerman provides a highly original account of moral obligation and moral responsibility that is sharply at odds with the prevailing wisdom. His book will be of significant interest to a wide range of readers in ethics.

The principal aim of this book is to develop and defend an analysis of the concept of moral obligation. What it seeks to do is to generate solutions to a range of philosophical problems concerning obligation and its application. This study will be of particular interest to all philosophers concerned with normative ethical theory.
