The Origin and Growth of the Moral Instinct; Volume II

Meer over het boek

A treatise on the evolution of moral behavior, written by Scottish philosopher Alexander Sutherland. The book draws on ideas from both biology and social theory to argue that morality is innate to human beings and has developed over millennia as a means of promoting cooperative behavior. Despite being written in the late 19th century, many of its insights and arguments remain relevant to contemporary discussions of morality and human nature.
