We need to know what sustainability is, before it can be achieved.
How must sustainability be defined? Fuzzy Ethics describes a new
moral criterion which locates ethics in the physical world and,
based on it, proposes a new definition of sustainability that
generalizes concepts from engineering, physics, and ethics. This
book has two main parts. The first conducts a dialogue in order to
establish the operative definitions (for example: order; and
effort) needed to increase the rigor of argumentation; ethical
framework; and moral criterion to follow. The second sees a final
reflection isolating one by one, the main sentences on which the
previous dialogue is based. Here the key points that the reader
must interrogate in order to find any flaws in the theory are
detailed. The final part links ethics and sustainability, and
reveals how the finitude of humankind leads to fuzziness. Efren M.
Benavides is a Professor at the School of Aeronautics, Universidad
Politecnica de Madrid, Spain. He specialises in theories of
sustainable design, mechanical design, reciprocating engines and
propulsion systems with research work in the field of aeronautics.
Efren has written books and numerous articles about these subjects
in a variety of scholarly journals and scientific literature. This
is his first book with TrueHeart Press.
