Bøker av Michael J. Zimmerman

At the heart of ethics lies the concept of intrinsic value. It is at work when we assess whether a person is virtuous or vicious, and acts rightly or wrongly. This book investigates the nature of intrinsic value: what sort of thing has it, and how it is measured or quantified.

Michael Zimmerman provides a highly original account of moral obligation and moral responsibility that is sharply at odds with the prevailing wisdom. His book will be of significant interest to a wide range of readers in ethics.
