Self-Interest: An Anthology of Philosophical Perspectives from Antiquity to the

Description: Self-Interest by Kelly Rogers Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description This book brings into discussion the reconciliation of necessary self-concern with its manifest potential for harm. Publisher Description As Aquinas observed, the drive for self-preservation is the first law of nature. With self-love, however, comes the threat of "the excessive love of self". This work discusses the reconciliation of inevitable self-concern with its manifest potential for harm. It brings together the efforts of 23 important philosophers to address the question of how to bring about such a reconciliation. The volume is broken down into five historical periods, each with its own distinctive attitudes and concerns. While recurring themes - such as questions about the nature of self-interest, its connection to benevolence and morality, and its implications for political theory - are seen, each era handles these themes differently, with varied philosophical results.
