Condición: New.

Taschenbuch. Condición: 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.
