This brilliant and penetrating book uncovers a crisis in the political imagination, a wide-spread failure to provide the passionate sense of community "in which our need for belonging can be met".

Incisive and moving, The Needs of Strangers return to philosophy to its proper place, as a guide to the art of being human.
