Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: OUR AGE IS CHARACTERIZED by an uncertainty about the na ture of moral obligations, about what one can hope for in an afterlife, and about the limits of human knowledge. These uncertainties were captured by Immanuel Kant in his Critique of Pure Reason, where he noted three basic human questions: what can we know, what ought we to do, and what can we hope for. Those questions and the uncer tainties about their answers still in great part define our cultural per spective. In particular, we are not clear about the foundations of ethics, or about their relationship to religion and to science. This volume brings together previously published essays that focus on these inter relationships and their uncertainties. It offers an attempt to sketch the interrelationship among three major intellectual efforts: determining moral obligations, the ultimate purpose and goals of man and the cosmos, and the nature of empirical reality. Though imperfect, it is an effort to frame the unity of the human condition, which is captured in part by ethics, in part by religion, and in part by the sciences. Put another way, this collection of essays springs from an attempt to see the unity of humans who engage in the diverse roles of valuers, be lievers, and knowers, while still remaining single, individual humans.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Initially prepared as part of the Foundations of the Unity of Science volumes under the auspices of the "International Encyclopedia of Unified Science, Science and the Structure of Ethics "soon took on a life of its own. Well positioned in the naturalistic tradition of ethical theory extending from John Dewey at the start and Richard Rorty at the conclusion of the century, Abraham Edel's volume offers a remarkable synthesis of the ways hi which ethical statements can be examined, and the nature of ethical concerns. Edel reveals a singular capacity to move beyond oracular controversies of the good and the right hi favor of a comparative, analytic, and functional account of how ethical perspectives and practices affect the content of moral discourse. In Edel's work, the structure of ethical behavior is defined by biological, psychological, social, and historical functions. Hence a scientific account of ethics is possible since moral norms are themselves products of an experiential field open to verification procedures common to all other walks of human life. In reviewing the impact of Edel's work hi general, and this volume in particular, Irving Louis Horowitz notes that Edel's naturalistic emphasis fits neatly with a view of ethics as something grounded in human experience rather than mandated from divine assumption: "It is hard for me to imagine a turning back from the hard lessons of the century, any more in ethical theory than in empirical research as such. We owe a central place in our century's intellectual capital to Edel's examination of ethical doctrines in the light of changing circumstances." This is a work certain to enlist the interest of ethicists, sociologists of knowledge, as well as those concerned with issues hi the philosophy of science and religion alike.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Science of Ethics: An Elementary System of Theoretical and Practical Morality It has been the controlling design in the preparation of this work simply to introduce to ethical studies. After a careful analysis of an act of duty by which the essential constituents of duty are ascertained, the science is unfolded in the light of this analysis, with logical exactness, into a full presentation of its principles and truths in their due relations to one another - into a well-grounded, comprehensive, and organic system of theoretical and practical morality. The elementary character of the work has precluded the introduction of the historical and critical discussion, by which ethical literature is so generally characterized. The peculiarities of the treatise are to be found mainly in the analysis of the concrete act of duty which furnishes the fundamental principles of ethical science; in the systematic development and arrangement of these principles; in their application to the particulars of ethical practice; and the more full and detailed presentation of the practical part of ethics.

Download or read book Ethics and Science written by Adam Briggle and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-10-25 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who owns your genes? What does climate science imply for policy? Do corporations conduct honest research? Should we teach intelligent design? Humans are creating a new world through science. The kind of world we are creating will not simply be decided by expanding scientific knowledge, but will depend on views about good and bad, right and wrong. These visions, in turn, depend on critical thinking, cogent argument and informed judgement. In this book, Adam Briggle and Carl Mitcham help readers to cultivate these skills. They first introduce ethics and the normative structure of science and then consider the 'society of science' and its norms for the responsible conduct of research and the treatment of human and animal research subjects. Later chapters examine 'science in society' - exploring ethical issues at the interfaces of science, policy, religion, culture and technology. Each chapter features case studies and research questions to stimulate further reflection.
