It was Justin’s great sug- gestion to structure this book as a dialogue between philosophers with different views. Both Justin and Dugald read multiple drafts of the book proposal and the chapter on animals, offering thoughtful and challenging feedback that improved the work. Sarah is also thankful to her husband, Tony, and her children, Elsie, Adelaide, Irie, and Brooklyn, for their support and patience all those weekends when she missed family bike rides and didn’t fold the laundry because she was working on this book. Jon Mandle thanks his colleagues in the Department of Philosophy at the University at Albany, and especially Kristen Hessler, for creating such a posi- tive and supportive philosophical home. He also thanks David Reidy for sharing years of conversation and reflection about Rawls’s work. And he is grateful for the loving care of his family, Karen Schupack and Anna Schupack, who contrib- uted the cover portrait of Rawls.
