Justice: What's the Right Thing to Do? begins Sunday, Sept. 20

Is torture ever justified? Would you steal a drug that your child needs to survive? Is it sometimes wrong to tell the truth? How much is one human life worth? What do you think, and why?

For the first time, Harvard University and PBS have collaborated to provide one of the most popular classes in its history: Michael Sandel's "Justice" course. Hear discussion with Sandel's students as he challenges their moral reasoning through lively, engaging, and intimate debates.
