Why do we complain of Nature? She has shown herself kindly; life, if you know how to use it, is long. But one man is possessed by an avarice that is insatiable, another by a toilsome devotion to tasks that are useless; one man is besotted with wine, another is paralyzed by sloth; one man is exhausted by an ambition that always hangs upon the decision of others, another, driven on by the greed of the trader, is led over all lands and all seas by the hope of gain; some are tormented by a passion for war and are always either bent upon inflicting danger upon others.

Technology rules us as much as laws do. It shapes the legal, social, and ethical environments in which we act. Every time we cross a street, drive a car, or go to the doctor, we submit to the silent power of technology.

Our embrace of novel technological pathways, Sheila Jasanoff shows, leads to a complex interplay among technology, ethics, and human rights.

To the modern mind, the idea of honor is outdated, sexist, and barbaric. It evokes Hamilton and Burr and pistols at dawn, not visions of a well-organized society. But for philosopher Tamler Sommers, a sense of honor is essential to living moral lives. In Why Honor Matters, Sommers argues that our collective rejection of honor has come at great cost.

يعد مبحث الأخلاق أحد المباحث الفلسفية الأساسية، فالحياة الأخلاقية تستمد مرجعيتها من الأسس الفلسفية التي تستند إليها وتبررها وتفسرها، وفي هذا الكتاب اختار أحمد أمين أن يركز على دراسة هذا المبحث، ولكن بشكل تربوي، بحيث يبين لنا أهميته العملية قبل الفلسفية، وبذلك فهو لا ينظر إلى الأخلاق كمقولة نظرية تتداولها ألسنة الفلاسفة وتحلق بها في برج عاجي بحيث تظل حبيسة جدران الكتب، وإنما ينظر إليها كممارسة اجتماعية حية تتحقق في واقعنا المعيش، ونتلمس أثرها بشكل مباشر في كافة معاملاتنا الحياتية؛ لذلك فهو يركز بشكل أساسي على مفاهيم أخلاقية فاعلة مثل: الضمير، والعدل، والصدق، والطاعة، والتعاون

Datato intorno al 399 a.C., l'"Apologia di Socrate" è il resoconto che Platone fa della autodifesa di Socrate, suo maestro, il quale deve difendersi dall'accusa di non credere negli dei della patria e di corrompere i giovani con i suoi insegnamenti.

Nella sua autodifesa Socrate non si limita ad argomentare seguendo, come sempre, una logica stringente, ma si abbandona ad una lunga e profonda riflessione sul senso della vita e della morte.
