Nobel economics laureate A K Sen's The Idea of Justice

http://www.amazon.com/The-Idea-Justice-Amartya-Sen/dp/0674036131#reader_0674036131 This is very interesting to me, partly because I liked Rawl's book so much, and also because A. K. Sen spent some years in Mandalay, Burma, as a child and has been called in for Burma consults. Parallel to the push to "elections" in 2010, there was also a much less publicized push towards justice and an ICC. cheers kmk

Ruth Prawer Jhabvala--I have a volume of her short stories--which I like a great deal.
