Izhak Englard presents an authoritative account of the Aristotelian tradition of analyzing justice, from Aristotle to John Finnis and Richard Posner and retraces the intricate history of the distinction between corrective and distributive justice. While writing about Aristotelian notions of justice through the ages, the author's lens for this intellectual and legal survey are the perennially debated notions of corrective and distributive justice stemming from Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics.
