Sidgwick and contemporary utilitarianism[electronic resource] /Mariko Nakano-Okuno. - Houndmills, Basingstoke, Hampshire ;Palgrave Macmillan,2011. - 1 online resource.

Includes bibliographical references (p. ) and index.

Introduction -- PART I: SIDGWICK'S THEORY OF ETHICS -- The Scope of Ethics -- An Overview of The Methods of Ethics -- Three Methods, Intuition, and Common Sense -- Meta-Ethical Analyses -- Testing the Significance of Apparent Truths -- The Three Fundamental Principles -- Philosophical Foundations of Utilitarianism -- PART II: A RE-EXAMINATION OF CONTEMPORARY UTILITARIANISM -- An Approach Not Appealing to Moral Intuition -- A Reappraisal of Hedonism -- Interpersonal Comparison and Maximization -- Reconciling the Dualism of the Practical Reason -- Concluding Chapter -- Notes -- Bibliography -- Index --

This is one of the rare academic studies on what John Rawls, Peter Singer and Derek Parfit acknowledge as the finest book in ethics ₆ The Methods of Ethics written by Henry Sidgwick. With a rather shocking conclusion that 'none of us can match Sidgwick', Mariko Nakano-Okuno elaborately and lucidly analyzes Henry Sidgwick's impacts on contemporary ethics, including critical reassessment of the utilitarian philosophy of R.M. Hare, J.C. Harsanyi and R.B. Brandt. Sidgwick and Contemporary Utilitarianism will be a must-read book for all professional philosophers as well as students concerned with Sidgwick's moral philosophy, utilitarian ethics, and the theoretical foundations of ethics in general. Its language is plain and reader-friendly, which enables philosophy beginners to understand the fundamental questions of ethics more easily and clearly than ever.
