Download or read book Rethinking Goodness written by Michael A. Wallach and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1990-01-01 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arguing that a psychological basis for ethics can be found in human motivation, Rethinking Goodness proposes a naturalistic ethics that transcends the conflict between liberalism and authoritarianism--the conflict between freedom at the price of narcissism and morality at the price of coercion. The authors offer a third option, an ethic broader than liberalism's pursuit of the personal, that avoids jeopardizing, as do authoritarian positions, the centrality of individual autonomy.
