This is a new edition of T. H. Green's 'Prolegomena to Ethics' (1883), a classic of modern philosophy, in which Green sets out his perfectionist ethical theory. In addition to the text of the 'Prolegomena' itself, this new edition provides an introductory essay, a bibliographical essay, and an index.
David Brink's self-styled 'edition' of T. H. Green's classic text of Victorian moral philosophy ... is very welcome indeed ... Brink's 'edition' makes Green's interesting criticisms of classical utilitarianism accessible to a new generation of readers and helps to fill a much needed gap in the history of English-speaking moral philosophy. The volume is attractively produced by Oxford University Press, and will help to promote interest in Green's neglected work.
