Description: "In Rethinking Justice, Richard H. Bell lifts up and restores an idea of justice found in the works of classical writers such as Socrates and Seneca as well as in that of more recent thinkers. Justice, classically, has dealt with righting wrongs and restoring peace to individuals and human communities. Bell believes we have lost sight of this in our modern political and legal dealings and must find a way to return it to mind and to practice."--Jacket.
