G. E. Moore's 1912 work Ethics has tended to be overshadowed by his
famous earlier work Principia Ethica. However, its detailed
discussions of utilitarianism, free will, and the objectivity of
moral judgements find no real counterpart in Principia, while its
account of right and wrong and of the nature of intrinsic value
deepen our understanding of Moore's moral philosophy. Moore himself
regarded the book highly, writing late in his career, "I myself
like [it] better than Principia Ethica, because it seems to me to
be much clearer and far less full of confusions and invalid
arguments." Short but philosophically rich, and written with
impressive precision and intellectual candor, Ethics is a minor
classic which repays careful study. This new edition includes
Moore's essay "The Nature of Moral Philosophy" as well as editorial
notes, an introduction, and a guide to further reading.
