Böcker av Henry Sidgwick

Essays on Ethics and Method is a selection of the shorter writings of the great nineteenth-century moral philosopher Henry Sidgwick. Sidgwick's monumental work The Methods of Ethics is a classic of philosophy; this new volume is a fascinating complement to it. The volume will be a rich resource for anyone interested in moral philosophy or the development of modern analytical philosophy.

This volume reintroduces the work of English philosopher and educator Henry Sidgwick (1838-1900). First published in 1898, it collects nine essays in which Sidgwick discusses ethical issues including the use of animals in research and whether public officials may ever be justified in lying.
