- Summary:
- The human world is alive with different sorts of goods -- the things worth achieving or celebrating. Chappell argues that we can't live well, or think well about ethics, if we don't properly understand these issues. From utilitarianism, Kantianism, Parfitian reductionism and euthanasia to free will and the meaning of life, he takes us on an original and thought-provoking journey through ethics.
