ISBN: 9781573922203 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 386 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. What would any rational person believe to be worth wanting or working for? Viewed from the standpoint of ethics and empirical psychology, how would such a person define and explain the morally right and the just? And what system of morals would rational people select as the best for the society?

The Point of View of the Universe: Sidgwick and Contemporary Ethics
ISBN: 9780198776727 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. What does the idea of taking 'the point of view of the universe' tell us about ethics? The great nineteenth-century utilitarian Henry Sidgwick used this metaphor to present what he took to be a self-evident moral truth: the good of one individual is of no more importance than the good of any other. Ethical judgments, he held, are objective truths that we can know by reason. The ethical axioms he took to be self-evident provide a foundation for utilitarianism. He supplements this foundation with an argument that nothing except states of consciousness have ultimate value, which led him to hold...

The Ethics of Killing Animals
ISBN: 9780199396085 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. While it is generally accepted that animal welfare matters morally, it is less clear how to morally evaluate the ending of an animal's life. It seems to matter for the animal whether it experiences pain or pleasure, or enjoyment or suffering. But does it also matter for the animal whether it lives or dies? Is a longer life better for an animal than a shorter life? If so, under what conditions is this so, and why is this the case? Is it better for an animal to live rather than never to be born at all? The Ethics of Killing Animals addresses these value-theoretical questions about...

Embryo Experimentation
ISBN: 9780521435888 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. New developments in reproductive technology have made headlines since the birth of the world's first in vitro fertilization baby in 1978. But is embryo experimentation ethically acceptable? What is the moral status of the early human embryo? And how should a democratic society deal with so controversial an issue, where conflicting views are based on differing religious and philosophical positions? These controversial questions are the subject of this book, which, as a current compendium of ideas and arguments on the subject, makes an original contribution of major importance to this debate....

Utilitarianism: A Very Short Introduction
ISBN: 9780198728795 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Utilitarianism may well be the most influential secular ethical theory in the world today. It is also one of the most controversial. It clashes, or is widely thought to clash, with many conventional moral views, and with human rights when they are seen as inviolable. Would it, for example, be right to torture a suspected terrorist in order to prevent an attack that could kill and injure a large number of innocent people? In this Very Short Introduction Katarzyna de Lazari-Radek and Peter Singer provide an authoritative account of the nature of utilitarianism, from its...
