Recenzii
“. . . this is a very good book. It deserves praise on account of its many philosophical virtues. Carson has original and stimulating ideas on almost every issue he takes up; he even has something fresh to say about such old chestnuts as Mill’s argument for hedonism. His arguments are carefully crafted, and he seldom claims for them more than they actually deliver. His prose style is plain, simple, and clear. He takes bold stands on controversial topics and defends them vigorously.” —Faith and Philosophy
“Value and the Good Life is a very rich work, one that makes significant contributions to several contemporary debates while also providing insights into the work of key historical figures. . . . Further, Carson’s divine-preference theory of value is promising and should gain significant attention from a wide range of philosophers. Highly recommended.” —Philosophy in Review
“Carson writes in an engaging, easygoing style. He is always open-minded and willing to acknowledge that his arguments depend on assumptions or intuitions that are not universally shared. . . . It is clear that Carson has an almost encyclopedic grasp of the relevant literature. . . . [His] views are sensible and intelligently defended. Anyone interested in recent work in axiology or metaethics will find the book worthy of careful study.” —Ethics
“Thomas Carson’s Value and the Good Life is a clear, well-written, wide-ranging essay on the theory of value. It is among the best defenses of a rational desire/preference theory of the good. Even those not inclined to accept such theories will profit from reading Carson’s discussion. . . . I think that readers interested in the realism/anti-realism debate in ethics or in the value theories of Nietzsche or Aristotle will also learn much from it.” —Business Ethics Quarterly
