JUST PUBLISHED IN ENGLISH – THE FOUNDATION OF ETHICS

IS THERE A SOLID FOUNDATION FOR THE ETHICAL CONCEPT OF THE GOOD?

Danish-Jewish thinker Andreas Simonsen explores this “ancient all-important question initially debated by the Sophists, Socrates and Plato” using an ancient technique – the dialogue form. Three separate conversations, three different interlocutors, three different worldviews: skeptical, rationalist and existentialist.

This eclectic, thought-provoking work takes the reader on a fascinating journey through Western philosophy and scientific theory – to the author’s unique adaptation of Niels Bohr’s theory of “complementarity” to ethics.
