Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the nature of war and the elusive search for a true foundation for human conduct. The author delves into the history of warfare, arguing that all wars ultimately result in an advance in freedom. However, he also acknowledges that each civilization has created its ow…n failures and enslavements, leading to a cycle of war and renewal. The author examines the shortcomings of various ethical systems, from proverbs to philosophy, arguing that none have provided an absolute guide to right and wrong. He posits that human nature seeks more than the lessons of the past, but a vision of a better future. The book delves into the teleological nature of human action, suggesting that every act is ultimately directed towards a purpose. The author argues that ethics must be teleological as well, serving the purpose of achieving desirable outcomes. However, the purpose must be acceptable to mankind and align with the direction of evolution and progress. Ultimately, this book challenges readers to confront the failures of the past and present and to strive for a true civilization based on a solid foundation of conduct. It offers a thought-provoking examination of the nature of war, the search for ethical guidance, and the human quest for meaning amidst a world in constant flux.
