You might try the Grube translation, recently revised by Reeve. One quick way is to look up the book on Amazon and then click the 'search inside' option. You'll have enough of the writing available to see what you like.

Re: Morality is a Culturally Conditioned Response

I think the problem is the person who wrote the article. Jesse Prinz didn't write the article. What makes the article more confusing are the examples the author gives which are supposed to be counter-examples to the claims non-relativists make. They are not good counter-examples. But, I have a probl...
