Ethical Relativity (The International Library of… di Edward Westermarck
An anthropologist argues for ethical relativity, i.e. the proposition that moral standards vary across cultures and each standard is equally valid or good. This book is interesting mainly for the exemplifying moral judgments that the author presents from different cultures. It's not really a book that a moral philosopher would need to take seriously because the argumentation isn't very deep or insightful.
Proverbs are arranged in useful groups. Much Arabic text in a separate section.
