Book Description:

What makes something discrimination, and why (and when) are acts of discrimination wrong? Benjamin Eidelson develops systematic answers to these two questions. He argues that what makes some cases of discrimination intrinsically wrongful is that they manifest an attitude of disrespect for the personhood of those who are disfavored.
