Teneo Press congratulates David Kirchhoffer on his new book Human Dignity in Contemporary Ethics.

The editor, Cheryl Toman, is Associate Professor of French and Francophone Studies, Director of the Ethnic Studies Program, and Co-Director of the Women’s and Gender Studies Program at Case Western Reserve University.
