First published in 1973, Reason and Compassion showcases a
collection of lectures by Professor Richard S. Peters concerned
primarily with the moral position, based on compassion and on the
use of reason, which is critical to code-encased moralities. He
reacts to the idea that whilst many people are sympathetic towards
protests against an established moral code, they are reluctant to
align themselves with modern forms of nihilism, subjectivism and
romantic revolt. The work studies the implications for moral
education and takes account of modern work ethics, development
psychology and philosophy of religion. It presents its findings in
a way which can be appreciated by specialists and non-specialists
alike. By making a distinction between the form of the moral
consciousness and the content of particular moralities, Peters
reconciles the development approach of Piaget with the approaches
of other schools of thought, including the Freudians and social
learning theorists.
