Rawls asserts that his Kantian inspired view of impartiality is superior to utilitarian views of impartiality.

Readers interested in a general understanding Rawls’s philosophy will find this treatise helpful. Those looking for a balanced comparison of Rawls’s Kantian project with a utilitarian perspective should also find this book useful.
