Rethinking the good [electronic resource] : moral ideals and the nature of practical reasoning / Larry S. Temkin. Temkin, Larry S. Good and evil. Practical reason. BJ1031 .T395 2012 170 23 Includes bibliographical references and index. Description based on print version record. In choosing between moral alternatives we typically make calculations of the following kind, using the principle of transitivity: A is better than B; B is better than C; therefore A is better than C. Temkin shows that if we want to continue making plausible judgments, we cannot continue to make these assumptions.
