Om denne e-boken
This early work is John Dewey’s 1908 treatise, “Ethics”. This comprehensive monograph on the concept of ethics will be of considerable utility to students of philosophy, and would make for a fantastic addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: “Definition and Method”, “Criterion of the Treatment”, “Typical Facts of Group Life”, “Kinship and Household Groups”, “The Kinship and Family Groups are also Economic and Industrial Units”, “The Kinship and Family Groups were Political Bodies”, etc. John Dewey (1859–1952) was an influential American psychologist and philosopher. Many classic books such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
