Description

Ethical Theory, Richard B. Brandt, HC 1959 Prentice-Hall, Like New. Richard B. Brandt's Ethical Theory: The Problems of Normative and Critical Ethics (1959) is a foundational text exploring fundamental ethical questions, bridging metaethics (the nature of morality) and normative ethics (moral principles) with a systematic approach, advocating for a form of utilitarianism informed by psychology, proposing that rational choice leads to maximizing well-being and establishing justified moral codes through "cognitive psychotherapy," serving as a landmark work for understanding moral reasoning and justification.
