We can see a theft, hear a lie, and feel a stabbing. These are
morally important perceptions. But are they also moral
perceptions--distinctively moral responses? In this book, Robert
Audi develops an original account of moral perceptions, shows how
they figure in human experience, and argues that they provide moral
knowledge. He offers a theory of perception as an informative
representational relation to objects and events. He describes the
experiential elements in perception, illustrates moral perception
in relation to everyday observations, and explains how moral
perception justifies moral judgments and contributes to objectivity
in ethics. Moral perception does not occur in isolation. Intuition
and emotion may facilitate it, influence it, and be elicited by it.
Audi explores the nature and variety of intuitions and their
relation to both moral perception and emotion, providing the
broadest and most refined statement to date of his widely discussed
intuitionist view in ethics. He also distinguishes several kinds of
moral disagreement and assesses the challenge it poses for ethical
objectivism. Philosophically argued but interdisciplinary in scope
and interest, Moral Perception advances our understanding of
central problems in ethics, moral psychology, epistemology, and the
theory of the emotions.
