Présentation de l'éditeur
In presenting a study which makes use of the questionaire, I am well aware that this method is at present viewed in some quarters with decided disfavor. That there is genuine warrant for such an attitude I do not hesitate to admit. But the criticisms urged affect at bottom not so much the method itself as its uncritical employment on the part of certain persons whose zeal outruns their discretion. That, in itself, it is sound and capable of bringing forth good fruit is demonstrated if in no other way by the results obtained by Sir Francis Galton in his studies of imagery and other allied phenomena. I ts value in any particular case, therefore, is not to be hastily prejudged, but is rather to be determined by an examination of what it is set to do, the care with which returns are sifted, the precautions used against possible sources of error, and the relation established between data and conclusions. Nothing would be more fatal to the future of ethics than a general condemnation before a hearing of all studies of the moral life that employ the ques tionaire. For, if we are to solve the problems of our science, we simply must begin in some way or other to study the moral life about us in its concreteness. Contemporary economics must point us our way. Economics began its career with the pro duction of analytic treatises of which The Wealth of Nations is the typical example. Data were obtained partly from in trospection, partly from observation, more or less careful, of that part of the industrial world with which circumstances had happened to make the author acquainted.

A Study of the Influence of Custom on the Moral Judgment (Classic Reprint)
impression à la demandeVendeur : Forgotten Books, London, Royaume-Uni
Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the origins of moral judgements, arguing that they stem from custom and kindred forces, rather than existing independently of human interaction. The author challenges the prevailing notion that customs inherently shape morality, suggesting instead that they influence it to a limited extent. Drawing on a study of moral judgments of university students, the author presents evidence that suggests the existence of universal moral standards that transcend cultural norms. The book explores the relationship between custom and morality, challenging the conventional wisdom that custom is the sole source of moral values. It argues that morality is more complex and multifaceted, with a rich tapestry of influences that shape its development. The author presents a nuanced understanding of the role of custom in morality, acknowledging its influence while also highlighting the limitations of its power. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781330827635_0
