Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Using classical and contemporary philosophical ideas, and stories from literature and film, this book involves the reader in considering alternative possibilities for self-development. It challenges the reader to reflect seriously about his or her own patterns of thinking about how to live,…showing the superficiality of much of our thinking about what is in our interest. Often people count up potential gains of an act without considering whether the gains and the way of living required to attain them fit within their conception of the life they want to have. To work for us, instead of against us, our thinking about how to benefit ourselves needs to be guided by informed judgment about what kind of self to be. The book shows that Self-interested thinking is incomplete and often counterproductive unless it is guided by a conception of the self one aspires to be and the life one aspires to live. The kind of thinking needed to choose a self differs from self-interested thinking and cannot be reduced to considerations of self-interest. Serious reflection on the self often gives a person reason to build into the self a range of concerns that result in motivations other than self-interest. Many people will have reason to form a self motivated by fundamental concerns for moral living. Self-interest is usually conceived to be in significant conflict with moral living. However, descriptions of the nature of this conflict typically assume a self without a moral identity. If we imagine a self whose identity is partially shaped by moral aspirations, the contrast between self-interest and morality is less sharp, and the nature of the conflict is significantly altered. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. 'Lucid, smartly written . A welcome intervention into the debate surrounding the future of liberalism' Financial Times'It takes scholarly courage and knowledge to upend Adam Smith, but this is what Krzysztof Pelc has done . . . Profound and brilliant' Robert Skidelsky'A fascinating book, bur…sting with paradoxes, riddles and counterintuitive ideas that will challenge some of your strongest beliefs about how society works' Daniel SusskindWeve learned that the way to get ahead is through strong will, grit and naked ambition. The belief that self-interest makes the world go round has served us well: it has helped make our society more affluent. But does that premise still hold?In Beyond Self-Interest, Krzysztof Pelc argues that those who prosper increasingly do so by spurning prosperity, or by convincing others that they are pursuing passion, purpose, love of craft anything but their own self-advancement. From the Puritans, who followed a religious calling and yet made a killing; to the fastest-growing firms of today, who claim to be changing to the world through doing what they love, declaring passion over profit is a profitable move.A bold, incisive and original work that draws on three centuries of intellectual thought, Beyond Self-Interest is a book to upend how we relate to capitalism. What if the true driver of market society is not the appearance of self-interest, but its opposite? Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that… encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
