Examining Thomas Hill Green's moral philosophy, Thomas defends a radically new perception of Green as an independent thinker rather than a devoted partisan of Kant or Hegel. Green's moral philosophy, argues Thomas, includes a widely misunderstood defense of free will, an innovative model of deliberation that rejects both Kantian and Humean conceptions of practical reason, a barely recognized theory of character, and an account of moral objectivity that involves no dependence on religion--all of which yield a coherent body of moral philosophy that raises important problems neglected in contemporary ethics.

Editorial Reviews
Review
"A challenging, inventive, and sometimes idiosyncratic interpretation of Green."--Ethics
"Thomas has done a commendable job of reconstructing Green's moral psychology and ethical theory and relating them to contemporary concerns. His book is a good example of how the history of philosophy ouht to be pursued."--The Philosophical Review
