Excerpt from Reason and Conduct: New Bearings in Moral Philosophy
In arranging these essays, I have decided not to follow a strict chronological order. Instead, I have divided them into two main groups. The first represents my own successive efforts to find answers to the questions of analytical ethics. The second offers a selection of critical studies of particular works that reflect some of the prevailing winds of doctrine in contemporary moral philosophy and several essays dealing with a variety of topics, historical and substantive as well as methodological, which, at one time or another, have engaged my attention. Taken together, the papers do seem to me to provide a fairly comprehensive survey of a good many of the issues with which moral philosophers are now concerned. However, I most particularly desire not to give the impres sion that without really trying I have somehow managed to construct a new system of moral philosophy. These are new bearings, nothing more.
