PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Justin Tosi is Associate Professor of Philosophy at Texas Tech University. With Brandon Warmke, he is the author of Grandstanding: The Use and Abuse of Moral Talk (Oxford University Press, 2020). Brandon Warmke is Associate Professor of Philosophy at Bowling Green State University. With Justin Tosi, he is the author of Grandstanding: The Use and Abuse of Moral Talk (Oxford University Press, 2020).
“Tosi and Warmke prove a surprising thesis: to make the world a better place, most of us should stop trying to make the world a better place. The people who think they can save the world tend to make it worse, in part because they oversimplify problems and push counterproductive solutions, and in part because moralizers and busybodies make themselves and others miserable. People who set out to be heroes tend to become villains. Ordinary people leading quiet lives, working regular jobs and raising their families, are to be commended, not scolded for not thinking bigger. Why Its OK to Mind Your Own Business is a wise reflection on ordinary wisdom. It’s a book everyone should read when young, again when middle-aged, and once more when old.” Jason Brennan, Georgetown University
