Excerpt from Appleton's Popular Science Monthly, Vol. 50: November, 1896, to April, 1897
IN the present paper I purpose to discuss briefly the nature of the moral standard, strictly so called. The simplest way of approaching the subject will perhaps be to pass in rapid review the other principal criteria of conduct, by contrast with which the essential character of the moral criterion itself will be brought into conspicuous relief.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a thorough survey of the various standards of conduct, both moral and otherwise, that have guided human behavior throughout history. The author first examines the supernatural, social, and political standards that have exerted influence on people's lives, contrasting them with the true moral standard. The author asserts that morality is based on the inherent nature of actions and their consequences, and that it is distinct from other standards that rely on external authority or social conventions. The book explores the evolution of the moral code and its relationship to natural law, arguing that morality has emerged as the most effective and rational means of ensuring well-being and a fulfilling life. The author concludes by emphasizing the importance of basing our actions on moral principles, as this leads to a more meaningful and ethical existence.
