I haven't read this book myself, but it comes highly recommended in "The Ethics of Authenticity", by the noted philosopher Charles Taylor, who says in a footnote that "I have drawn a lot on the penetrating discussion in Benner and Wrubel, The Primacy of Caring, which shows how much philosophy can contribute to a new enframing of instrumental reason of the kind I am discussing here."
