Sinossi
Il declino della religione e la crescente influenza della scienza pongono acuti problemi etici per tutti noi. Possiamo rifiutare la verità letterale dei Vangeli e tuttavia mantenere una moralità cristiana? Possiamo difendere qualsiasi "valore morale" contro le continue invasioni della tecnologia? In effetti, corriamo il rischio di perdere la maggior parte delle qualità che ci rendono veramente umani? Qui, attingendo all'intuizione di un romanziere su arte, letteratura e psicologia, Iris Murdoch conduce un dibattito in corso con importanti scrittori, pensatori e teologi - da Agostino a Wittgenstein, Shakespeare a Sartre, Platone a Derrida - per fornire risposte fresche e convincenti a queste domande cruciali.
