I can't recall the connecting of dots that led me here:

But, upon reading, I am left with some thoughts:
I never could have been an academic philosopher. Nussbaum's thoroughness on just this one topic... I flit and flit from this to that, following the most recent shiny object to fall in my line of vision. The way she structures this and digs deep with her analysis - beautiful, powerful, masterful.
The mention of Trump in this is, well, something. This was published in 1995. He won the popular vote...for president. If that doesn't depress you, congratulations I guess.
