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.
