{"product_id":"embodied-care-maurice-hamington-9780252029288","title":"Embodied Care: Jane Addams, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, and Feminist Ethics","description":"Until now, ethicists have said little about the body, limiting their comments on it to remarks made in passing or, at best, devoting a chapter to the subject. \u003ci\u003eEmbodied Care\u003c\/i\u003e is the first work to argue for the body's centrality to care ethics, doing so by analyzing our corporeality at the phenomenological level. It develops the idea that our bodies are central to our morality, paying particular attention to the ways we come to care for one another. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Hamington's argues that human bodies are \"built to care\"; as a result, embodiment must be recognized as a central factor in moral consideration. He takes the reader on an exciting journey from modern care ethics to Merleau-Ponty's philosophy of the body and then to Jane Addams's social activism and philosophy. The ideas in \u003ci\u003eEmbodied Care\u003c\/i\u003e do not lead to yet another competing theory of morality; rather, they progress through theory and case studies to suggest that no theory of morality can be complete without a full consideration of the body. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Maurice Hamington\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0252029283\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780252029288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Illinois Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/09\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 181\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.93lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.52h x 13.58w x 0.74d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2005 pg. 1035","brand":"Maurice Hamington","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44075982422271,"sku":"9780252029288","price":38.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5879d47b-ddd1-425e-8944-e0d31f0697cc.jpg?v=1685462525","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/embodied-care-maurice-hamington-9780252029288","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
