Beschrijving Discourses and Selected Writings

Epictetus, a Greek stoic and freed slave, ran a thriving philosophy school in Nicropolis in the early second century AD. Together with the "Enchiridion", a manual of his main ideas, this book argues that happiness lies in learning to perceive exactly what is in our power to change and what is not.

Protecting Life

Protecting Life is about the moral principles, at the individual and institutional level, that should guide and restrain police use of deadly force. Beyond simply identifying those principles, Ben Jones translates them into law and policy through extensive engagement with social science research.

Status in Law and Morality

This book provides a philosophical account of status, to argue that it is a moral and not just a legal or social idea that can be instrumental in regulating unequal social relations and protecting vulnerable groups.

Answering Scepticism

Answering Scepticism presents a closely reasoned and compelling account of scepticism about knowledge of the existence of an external world and scepticism about whether we know anything about what is presently going on around us.
