Details

From the rear cover

"Just Married, by Stephen Macedo, is public philosophy the way it should be done. Taking on the tangled, emotionally charged issue of the institution of marriage, his new book is smart, open-minded, alert to complexity, aware of relevant empirical evidence, and well written. In our polarized public life, this invitation to reasoned deliberation about important controversies is rare and precious."--Robert D. Putnam, author of Bowling Alone and Our Kids: The American Dream in Crisis

"An ambitious work by a thoughtful scholar, Just Married brings an important and distinctive voice to the academic debate and public conversation about marriage."--Linda McClain, Boston University School of Law

"This book argues, both critically and constructively, that liberal democratic principles, properly understood, require the extension of marriage to same-sex couples. Just Married embodies the typical strengths of Macedo's writing--a compelling thesis, clarity, and openness to actual experience."--William A. Galston, Brookings Institution
