Every choice we make is set against a background of massive
ignorance about our past, our future, ourcircumstances, and
ourselves. Philosophers are divided on the moral significance of
such ignorance. Some say that it has a direct impact on how we
ought to behave
-
the question of what our moral obligations are;
others deny this, claiming that it only affects how we ought to be
judged in light of the behavior in which we choose to engage
-
the question of what responsibility we bear for our choices.
Michael Zimmerman claims that our ignorance has an important
bearing on both questions, and
offersan
account
ofmoral
obligation and moral responsibility that is sharply at odds with
the prevailing wisdom. His book will be of interest to a wide
range of readers in ethics.
