Title: A critique of moral knowledge
Description: "This is the first English-language edition of Yves R. Simon's first book, Critique de la connaissance morale, which was originally published in 1934. Not only does this work clarify the first stages of Simon's intellectual career, it is also a fundamental contribution to moral philosophy.".

"A Critique of Moral Knowledge addresses a number of issues in a fundamental set of problems: How does moral knowledge differ from other practicial knowledge? What is the primary analog of moral knowledge? What is the controlled range of meanings of moral knowledge? What is the relationship between the moral sense (Simon's term for synderesis), moral philosophy, and the cognition embedded in action? Is politics part of moral philosophy or a neutral technique?".

"This translation will be of value to all who are interested in tracking the work of this influential thinker, and will be an important contribution to the twentieth-century conversation on philosophy, politics, religion, and ethics."--BOOK JACKET.
