Paperback. Zustand: New. This book provides a philosophical exposition of Ubuntu ethics, which it does by explaining the saying 'a person is a person through other persons'. Written by one of the world's leading scholars of African philosophy, the book first argues that the focus on umuntu (or, a person) in Ubuntu ethics as intrinsically valuable makes ethical humanism and human dignity vitally important.
