The fundamental question confronted in this book is: Are there moral absolutes? This is one of the most important issues in life, especially today where society has, for the first time in history, rejected moral absolutism and embraced moral relativism.

Written in his trademark style, this book contains 11 interviews (or debates) on the said topic. The interviewee is 'Isa Ben Adam, a "forty-one-year-old Palestinian Arab who is a Professor of Philosophy" and the interviewer is Libby, a journalist who has been described as "a classy, sassy Black feminist". Both are sharp of mind yet bluntly honest.

The interviews are logically ordered and are as follows:
Interview 1: The Importance Of Moral Relativism: Will It Really "Damn Our Souls And End Our Species"?
Interview 2: What Is Moral Relativism?
Interview 3: The History Of Relativism
Interview 4: The Data
Interview 5: The Arguments For Relativism From Self-Esteem And From Cultural Relativity
Interview 6: The Arguments For Relativism From Social Conditioning, Freedom And Tolerance
Interview 7: The Arguments For Relativism From Situations, Intensions, Projection And Evolution
Interview 8: The Roots Of Relativism: Reductionism
Interview 9: The Arguments For Moral Absolutism
Interview 10: The Philosophical Assumptions Of Absolutism
Interview 11: The Cause And Cure Of Relativism
