Description:From Descartes to Spinoza, Western philosophers have attempted to propose an axiomatic systemization of ethics. However, without consensus on the contents and objects of ethics, the system remains incomplete. This four-volume set presents a model that highlights a Chinese philosopher's insights on ethics after a 22 year study. Three essential components of ethics are examined: metaethics, normative ethics, and virtue ethics.In this volume, the author not only studies the five primitive concepts of metaethics -- "value", "good", "ought", "right", and "fact" - and reveals their relationship, but also demonstrates the solution to the classic "Hume's guillotine"--whether "ought" can be derived from "fact". His aim is to identify excellent moral norms, leading to solutions on how to prove ethical axioms and ethical postulates.Written by a renowned philosopher, the Chinese version of this set sold more than 60,000 copies and has exerted tremendous influence on the academic scene in China. The English version will be an essential read for students and scholars of ethics and philosophy in general.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
