The rational foundations of ethics
New York: Routledge & Kegan Paul (1987)
Abstract
Can moral judgements be true or false? Can rational methods be applied to ethics? In this landmark study, Sprigge gives an account of how philosophers have tackled these questions and puts forward his own theory on the matter.
