Synopsis

In Social Equilibrium, Batchelor asks how our morals are formed and tested by history, science, and culture.

This collection explores how ideas of right and wrong grow from both our inherited traits and the traditions we share. It looks at how education, society, and even commerce shape ethical life, and it weighs the ongoing balance between progress and preservation.

  • How heredity and environment interact to shape moral ideas across generations
  • Ways tradition and education influence education, culture, and daily conduct
  • Examples of how different societies expand or constrain ethical life
  • Questions about the role of divine guidance, rational discovery, and social forces in ethics
Ideal for readers of ethics, philosophy, and social history.
