Description: "A feminist critic of the natural law tradition explores the ongoing confrontation between natural law and moral rights to argue that rights constitute a more solid grounding for ethics in human affairs - and for feminist thought. In this volume, Christine Pierce's important essays - including the celebrated "Natural Law Language and Women" - expand, reflect, and refine this central controversy."--BOOK JACKET.
