Synopsis

This book analyzes the moral principles of conduct and guides the reader toward establishing their own system of morality through a process of self-evaluation and self-examination. Rather than defining morality by religious or traditional standards, the author encourages the reader to consider the intentions behind an action and to assess its worthiness by considering the satisfaction or dissatisfaction one may experience in retrospect. By exploring concepts such as the social, legal, and religious sanctions that govern behavior, the author challenges the notion that morality is determined by external influences, arguing instead that our internal moral compass should be our guiding force. Thought-provoking and accessible, this book provides a framework for understanding ethical dilemmas and making informed moral decisions in our increasingly complex world.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This philosophy text represent an attempt to exhibit a scientific conception of morality in a popular form, and with a view to practical applications rather than the discussion of theoretical difficulties. For this purpose it has been necessary to study brevity and avoid controversy. Hence, I have made few references to other authors, and I have almost altogether dispensed with foot-notes.
