Summary:

We often rely on others for guidance about what to do. But wouldn't it be better to rely instead on only our own judgment? Eric Wiland argues that we can accept moral testimony without loss, that there are several distinctive social goods attainable by being guided by others, and that sometimes taking another's advice is the only way to act well.
