This book presents an excellent overview of theoretical and empirical issues in the investigation of conscience through multidisciplinary approach. We would like to recommend this book to the readers of literature and social sciences as it provides sufficient material to all those who are concerned about the responsibility of mankind in the face of various trends endangering this world of ours. This multidisciplinary approach has brought together the scholars and academicians working in literature, philosophy, psychology, political theory and other disciplines to examine the conscience for our moral self-understanding. The ‘voice of conscience’ has not only been regarded as a main source of moral cognition but has also been of persistent fascination for many writers. This book has covered a wide range of topics connected to conscience, in order to show how they bear upon each other and to further mutual understanding among the people participating in various discourses.
