To the modern mind, the idea of honor is outdated, sexist, and barbaric. It evokes Hamilton and Burr and pistols at dawn, not visions of a well-organized society. But for philosopher Tamler Sommers, a sense of honor is essential to living moral lives. In Why Honor Matters, Sommers argues that our collective rejection of honor has come at great cost. Reliant only on Enlightenment liberalism, the United States has become the home of the cowardly, the shameless, the selfish, and the alienated. Properly channeled, honor encourages virtues like courage, integrity, and solidarity.

A critical, yet seemingly impossible, topic!

Outstanding read on a undervalued topic in America

Having met Tamler in person and now having read one of his books on honor, I'm extremely thankful for his contributions to an incredibly relevant topic. The depth of his understanding of character and honor mixed with his his humor and ability to tell a good story makes this work easy to understand and internalize.
