Structures of Virtue and Vice
«Daly focuses not only on readability but also on depth. His detailed yet concise historical account of the shift from the casuistry between the 13th to 18th centuries, to the manualism of the 18th century up to Vatican II, emphasizes the growing end of Catholic theology since. In engaging ways, the book presents thorough examples of real-world sociostructural quandaries, such as sweatshop labor, university dynamics, and global warming.»
