A Philosophical Defense of Misanthropy (eBook, ePUB)
This book argues that it can be both reasonable and appropriate to adopt a certain kind of misanthropy. The author defends a cognitivist version of misanthropy, an attitude whose central feature is the judgment that humanity is morally bad. Misanthropy is often dismissed on moral grounds. Many people hold that malice toward human persons is problematic and vulnerable to moral objections. In this book, the author advocates for cognitivist misanthropy. He defends an Asymmetry Thesis, according to which a morally bad deed carries more weight than a morally good deed, even if the harm of the former is exactly equal to the benefit of the latter. He makes the case that being misanthropic in the cognitivist sense is morally permissible and compatible with a broad range of moral reasons for action. He also considers the role of misanthropy in environmental thought, arguing that charges of misanthropy against certain "non-anthropocentric" views do not have the force they are typically thought to carry. Finally, the author investigates the practical implications of adopting cognitivist misanthropy, asking what living with such an attitude would involve. A Philosophical Defense of Misanthropy will appeal to researchers and advanced students working in ethics and the philosophy of human nature.- Shop: buecher

The Worker: No Type Superior Morally , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 53min
People in whom the muscular system is proportionately larger and more highly developed than any of the other systems are Musculars. This system consists of the muscles of the organism.

Yet we are so accustomed to them that we rarely think of them and seldom give them credit for what they do. Learn about strengths and weaknesses of this type; discover their true likes and dislikes and why they are so prone to pugnacity. Also included in this volume are rules for how to understand combinations of various types. Read in English. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Max Bollinger.

In God We Trust: Morally Responsible Investing , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 384min
This book is both timely and timeless.In God We Trust delves deeply into current economic and market developments and reflects on how prosperity in the US returned in 2018, as capitalism has again been unleashed. The author says, "What a relief after eight years of economic stagnation and government over-regulation." Oddly, as the US economy has benefited from pro-growth policies, like tax rate cuts and deregulation, there exists a rising tide of sympathy for socialism among leftist politicians and young people. This timeless divide between capitalism and socialism is explored within the context of the economic and moral ramifications for society in general and long-term investors, specifically.Listeners with historical perspective will appreciate the logic of what should be obvious, that is, socialism has never worked anywhere on earth. Or aptly put by President Ronald Reagan, "Socialism can only work in two places: heaven, where they don't need it, and hell, where they already have it." ungekürzt. Language: English.

The Moral Psychology of Love (eBook, ePUB)
Under what circumstances can love generate moral reasons for action? Are there morally appropriate ways to love? Can an occurrence of love or a failure to love constitute a moral failure? Is it better to love morally good people? This volume explores the moral dimensions of love through the lenses of political philosophy, psychology, and neuroscience. It attempts to discern how various social norms affect our experience and understanding of love, how love, relates to other affective states such as emotions and desires, and how love influences and is influenced by reason. What love is affects what love ought to be. Conversely, our ideas of what love ought to be partly determined by our conception of what love is.- Shop: buecher
