Here is a look at some of our most used ebooks this year at the D’Youville Library.

The Ethics of Homelessness: philosophical perspectives

This book extends the study of homelessness beyond the need of shelter. A philosophical exploration that exposes the fragility of human fulfillment in contemporary society. The authors weave the moral fabric of what it means to be human. They show how economic and political values compromise the dignity of homeless persons. They argue for recognition of rights for the homeless, who otherwise would be voiceless and without membership in the moral community. This pioneering contribution instills our moral sensitivity to the homeless condition and justifies our moral responsibility to change that condition
