Puts out challenge ethics must overcome (egoism) to establish true morality.
Conditions of the Problem & Skeptical View set up the fundamental problem for ethics to solve: how to ground morality in something beyond self-interest or egoism, appealing to a natural, intuitive basis found in human nature. They position Schopenhauer to then argue, in subsequent chapters, that compassion is the sole true moral incentive.
