A book by Regents’ Professor Jeffrie G. Murphy, Kant, the Philosophy of Right, has just been published in a Chinese translation.

Murphy is the author of numerous books and articles on the theory of punishment, forgiveness and mercy, and the moral emotions. Most recently, he has written the book, Getting Even—Forgiveness and its Limits (Oxford University Press), and the article, “Remorse, Apology, and Mercy” (Ohio State Journal of Criminal Law), which is to be included in the Criminal Law Conversations project at the University of Pennsylvania Law School.

Murphy’s primary teaching and research areas are philosophy of law and jurisprudence, criminal law, ethics and religion, moral philosophy (including moral psychology), philosophy in literature/law and literature, and Kant’s moral, political and legal philosophy.
