内容説明・目次
内容説明
The "Physical Ethics or the Science of Action" is a work with which Alfred Barratt had "amused himself" during his leisure hours at Oxford. In content it owes a great debt to Herbert Spencer, described by Barratt as "the greatest philosopher of the age", in style, Spinoza's "Ethics", with its quasi-geometric format, may have been a key model. The work consists of a short Part One, the "General Derivation" in which Barratt states his theory; then a much longer Part Two, the "Special Verification", in which he shows how his theory explains the moral "facts" and also relates to rival moral theories. This is followed by a number of appendices on such topics as mind and matter, positivism, aesthetic emotions, and the search for a theological basis for morality.
