Description

Explore the profound impact of one of the most significant moral philosophers of the last century. Principles and Persons: The Legacy of Derek Parfit brings together twenty-one new essays inspired by the work of Derek Parfit. These essays move beyond simple commentary to make progress on the moral and prudential issues that Parfit addressed in his landmark writing, such as his seminal contribution Reasons and Persons (OUP, 1984). This collection addresses the core questions Parfit believed were essential to our lives, specifically how we ought to live and what we have most reason to value. For students, scholars, and readers interested in ethics and morality, this volume provides deep engagement with the themes that defined Parfit's influential career.
