A perfect Resolution

A PERFECT RESOLUTION corrects certain of what the author regards as the 'heathenistic' ('secular' in contemporary parlance) aberrations of its aphoristic predecessor, 'Stairway to Judgement', as it exposes the extent to which moral criteria are significantly dependent on the nature of the society of which they are a part, and of how this, in turn, is conditioned by gender factors which determine its axial direction and integrity, for better or for worse.
