exhilarating romp through some key concepts in western moral philosophy. it reads like a tongue-in-cheek primer but he still manages to cover some really tough topics and of course i feel well read and clever now but certainly it will quickly drop out again soon. a bit like revising neuroanatomy.
he covers virtue utilitarianism deontology contractualism pragmatism and even existentialism. with a gut puncher chapter on saying sorry and the difference between a real sorry and bullshit.
eudaimonia in a nutshell.
