Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'The New Morality' is a thought-provoking and systematic exploration of ethical theory and social practice written by philosopher Durant Drake. A cornerstone of early 20th-century ethical realism, the work challenges traditional, dogmatic, and supernatural foundations of morality in favor of a pragmatic, scientific approach to human conduct. Drake argues that moral codes should not be viewed as static, divinely inspired laws, but as experimental tools that must be evaluated based on their measurable impact on human happiness and social well-being.The book delves into a broad spectrum of contemporary social issues, ranging from personal integrity and marital relations to political corruption and international ethics. By applying a rationalistic lens to the complexities of modern life, Drake seeks to define a morality that is both intellectually defensible and practically effective in a rapidly changing world. He posits that the 'new morality' is an ongoing quest for the best possible way of living, grounded in the observation of cause and effect rather than ancient taboos. This work remains a significant contribution to the history of American thought, offering a clear-headed defense of secular humanism and the intellectual shift toward modernity.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the evolution of morality, from supernatural beliefs to modern, scientific understandings. The author argues that morality is not something imposed from above, but rather a set of rules and principles that have developed over time to promote human happiness. The book explores the shortcomings of both authoritarian and skeptical approaches to morality, and instead proposes a rational, naturalistic approach that is based on the consequences of actions. The author challenges traditional notions of morality, such as the idea that it is always wrong to break the law or that we should always put the needs of others before our own. Ultimately, the book's insights help us to understand the origins and purpose of morality, and to develop a more ethical and compassionate approach to life. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
