Hugh Mackay is a well known, highly regarded social commentator.

A helpful guide to navigating life's difficult decisions.

In life there are few, if any, moral absolutes for us to rely on, and facing an increasing array of choices we often lack the confidence of knowing we have made the right choice.In Right & Wrong, respected social commentator Hugh Mackay suggests some personal strategies that will make it easier to work out what is right and wrong for each of us in a particular situation. In an engaging, conversational style, Mackay tackles the minefield of personal relationships, business ethics, morality and religion, the benefits of moral mindfulness and the reasons why we should strive for a good life in which we are true to ourselves and sensitive to the wellbeing of others.

"... the arguments he presents ... demonstrate the psychological astuteness and keen moral sensibility that have made his newspaper columns so widely read and appreciated." -- The Age
