In presenting a systematic account of global duties of justice, Cosmopolitan Justicedeparts from many contemporary accounts that take the scope of justice to be limited to the state or nation. Is the unequal distribution of wealth across the globe just? Are the most indebted countries obliged to pay back their loans to international financial institutions? Does respecting state sovereignty prohibit intervening in the affairs of other states? What is the moral basis of international law? Cosmopolitan Justice takes on these questions, and much more. -- REVIEW: "Moellendorf (philosophy, U. of the Witwatersrand, South Africa) examines the meaning of justice on a global scale. The focus is on matters of international justice concerning the justification, content, and practical requirements of duties of justice to persons in other countries. Some of the issues treated include immigration limits, economic protectionism, international debt cancellation, justifications for war, and the institutional requirements of an egalitarian world order." - Book News -- AUTHOR: Darrel Moellendorf is a senior lecturer in the department of philosophy at the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, South Africa.

Brown, Helen Gurley Gurley: LATE SHOW: A SEMIWILD (BUT PRACTICAL) SURVIVAL PLAN FOR WOMEN OVER FIFTY, New York William Morrow & Company, Inc. 1993
0-688-10017-1 As New

<B> In 1962 a revolutionary book hit the New York Times best-seller list where it stayed for twenty-six weeks. That book was Sex and the Single Girl and its author, Helen Gurley Brown, hasn't stopped communicating - intimately - with millions of women ever since through her other best-selling books and as editor in chief of Cosmopolitan. <P> Following Sex and the Single Girl's phenomenal success, it was only a short time before Ms. Brown, with no previous magazine experience, turned the then-ailing and aging (one hundred years old) Cosmopolitan into the premiere women's magazine in America (number six among all magazines in newsstand sales) and the number-one young women's magazine in the world (twenty-eight international editions), each edited for and in celebration of Ms. Brown's creation, That Cosmopolitan Girl, the woman who loves men and children but doesn't want to live through other people; she wants to achieve on her own. <P><B> In The Late Show: A Semiwild but Practical Survival Plan for Women over 50, Ms. Brown describes in her distinctive voice what it's like to grow old - NOT gracefully but resourcefully and energetically, what you can expect during the process and what you can do to make it rewarding. The book is divided into twelve informative chapters that range from emotional security, marriage, money, sex, beauty and clothes to food, exercise, health, doctors, work and the importance of each as one grows older. Ms. Brown shares her own knowledge along with extensive research. Various chapters contain nearly noncaloric (but satisfying) recipes; up-to-the-minute news on fiber, alcohol, vitamins and their impact on health; beauty tips from Raquel Welch, Ali MacGraw, Lauren Hutton, Joan Rivers, Diane von Furstenberg, Judith Krantz, Gloria Vanderbilt and many other great-looking women not still in their twenties or thirties. (Don't ever tease your hair. Use warm teabags for puffy eyes. Whole-egg mayonnaise will shine up dull hair. Fall in love, as often as you can FROM THE CRITICS Publishers Weekly Longtime Cosmopolitan editor Brown ( Sex and the Single Girl ), who helped usher in the '60s with her magazine's brash, sassy advice on everything from getting it on to taking it off, here offers her brand of consolation to those of her followers now on the cusp of old age. Funny and breezy, she ticks off the multitude of indignities and frustrations aging women face. She also shares her own efforts to vanquish time, as well as those of innumerable rich and famous friends. Sex and money, she believes, are the keys to happiness, and she is not lacking for examples of 90-year-olds who are doing well. But there is still hope for those who will determinedly count little pleasures and bigger ones (''room service in a great hotel when you aren't paying''). She doesn't recommend tattooing for receding hairlines, as she herself tried, but neither does she stint on advice about how else to keep up appearances and stay thin. However frothy, this little advisory offers comfort and cheer--possibly even for those who have neither sex nor money. (Mar.) BookList - Mary Carroll Move over, boomerettes--Gurley Brown has a few thousand encouraging words for your older sisters. With Gail Sheehy's "Silent Passage" and Germaine Greer's "The Change" solidly entrenched on the nonfiction best-seller lists, perhaps this is the moment for Gurley Brown's bubbly, gossipy perspective on the final third of a woman's life. Astonishingly, it's three decades since the "mouseburger" from Little Rock became editor of "Cosmopolitan" and published "Sex and the Single Girl"; at age 6 (!), she has hard-earned wisdom to share about the effect of aging on a range of issues--self-acceptance, marriage, sex, beauty, clothes, exercise, food, health, doctors, work, and money. To no one's surprise, Gurley Brown did not age gracefully: she resisted the idea of being "older" until she began "The Late Show" six years ago and expects to hold off "old" for another decade or so.
