    "How many times do we hear the statement 'It's not for me to judge'? It conveys one of the most popular ideas of our time: that to make judgements of others is essentially wrong. In this classic text, the renowned moral philosopher Mary Midgley turns a spotlight on the ever popular stance in society that we should not make moral judgements on others. Guiding the reader through the diverse approaches to this complex subject, she interrogates our strong beliefs about such things as the value of freedom that underlie our scepticism about making moral judgements. She shows how the question of whether or not we can make these judgements must inevitably affect our attitudes not only to the law and its institutions but also to events that occur in our daily lives, and suggests that mistrust of moral judgements may be making life even harder for us than it would be otherwise. The texts and philosophers discussed range from Nietzsche and Sartre to P.D. James and the Bhagavad Gita. The Bloomsbury Revelations edition includes a new preface from the author."--Bloomsbury Publishing Can we base freedom on ignorance? -- Starting from where we are -- Why there is trouble over knowledge -- Scepticism and liberty -- Why must we not interfere? -- The fear of society -- The public side of morality -- Individuals in the modern melting-pot -- Individualism, solitude and privacy -- Morality and harm -- Rethinking relativism -- How large is a culture? -- Varieties of subjectivism -- The problem of private validity -- Social Darwinist egoism -- Moving forward through the modern world -- Doubts, reasonable and otherwise -- What about values? -- Back to the main question -- How much have things changed?
