The Methods of Ethics

"The Methods of Ethics" is a profound exploration of moral philosophy authored by Henry Sidgwick, originally published in 1874. This seminal work rigorously examines ethical theories, including utilitarianism, deontology, and intuitionism, evaluating their strengths and weaknesses in the pursuit of ethical truths. Sidgwick's comprehensive analysis seeks to reconcile conflicting moral principles and provide a systematic framework for ethical decision-making. His nuanced discussions on rational egoism, universal benevolence, and the nature of duty have made "The Methods of Ethics" a cornerstone of ethical theory, influencing subsequent thinkers and continuing to shape contemporary debates on morality and ethical reasoning.
