Justice: What's the Right Thing to Do? by Michael J Sandel
Moral Philosophy at its best but accessible, not dry or abstruse but written with clarity and simplicity. A rollercoaster ride - it is littered with examples from life (political and legal cases) for every step of the journey as well as conundrums such as a debate on whether to push a heavy bystander in front of a train to save five workmen on the track. Sandel challenges assumptions and adds depth to one's understanding - a tour de force.
