Facts, Values, and Morality by Richard B. Brandt

by Richard B. Brandt

This new book represents in some ways a summations of Brandt's views and includes many useful applications of his theory. The focus of the book is how value judgments and moral belief can be justified. More generally, the book assesses different moral systems and theories of justice, and considers specific problems such as the optimal level of charity and the moral tenability of the criminal law.
