Sinossi
Excerpt from Introduction to Ethics, Vol. 1 of 2: Including a Critical Survey of Moral Systems, Translated From the French of Jouffroy
As wine and oil are imported to us from abroad, so must ripe understanding, and many civil virtues, be imported into minds from foreign writings; we shall else miscarry still, come short in the attempts of any great enterprise.

Valutazione del venditore 4 su 5 stelle
Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fundamental principles of moral philosophies, both past and present, with the intent to categorize and critically examine them. The author begins by laying out the key facts of human nature, arguing that humans are born with instinctive tendencies and that they are given faculties that allow them to satisfy these tendencies. However, he then notes that humans often face obstacles in satisfying these tendencies, which then leads to the development of moral rules to help guide human conduct. The author then goes on to discuss the various moral systems that have been proposed over the centuries, including those of Hobbes, Bentham, Smith, and Price, and he provides a detailed critique of each system. The book concludes by arguing that the only truly valid moral system is one that is based on a deep understanding of human nature and that takes into account the obstacles that humans face in satisfying their instinctive tendencies. Ultimately, this book provides a comprehensive and critical overview of the history of moral philosophy, and it will be of interest to anyone who is interested in understanding the foundations of morality.
