Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book proposes to establish a field of political engineering, not on the author's untested assumptions, but on the fundamental goal of minimizing human suffering and maximizing happiness across societies. The author criticizes existing moral codes for their tendency to conflate moral action with personal sentiments and biases. Instead, the author suggests a scientific approach rooted in the pursuit of happiness. While this principle of utility has been present in many moral philosophies, the author argues that only a rigorous and exclusive focus on utility can bring about a moral system that is objectively best for humanity. The author acknowledges that distinguishing between happiness and suffering can be subjective, but that a scientific examination of the matter can ensure that judgments are made rationally. This book is an important contribution to the field of ethics, providing a framework for moral decision-making that is grounded in reason and the pursuit of the common good. 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 9781330971932_0
