Description

The most important ethical principle is the so-called golden rule: "treat others as you want to be treated." It finds support among even the most diverse cultures and religions throughout the world, and yet philosophers tend to neglect it. This work gives the Golden Rule the attention it deserves, and shows that the basic principles of ethics are very similar to principles of logic and provide a firm basis for our ethical thinking. Throughout, the text uses logic not to blind the reader with science but to make things clear. Ideas are presented in a way that beginners can understand and will enjoy, but at the same time specialists in moral philosophy should find it useful reading.
