Sample Book Insights:

#1 We should not punch our friends in the face for no rea­son, but it can be hard to de­ci­sion what to do in such an ob­vi­ous situ­ation. We should consider why it’s bad to punch our friends in the face for no rea­son, and that might help us make de­ci­sions about what to do in less morally ob­vi­ous sit­u­a­tions.

#2 The first theory we’re going to discuss is called virtue ethics. It defines good people as those who have certain qualities that they’ve cultivated and honed over time. But we immediately wonder if there is a single way to define a good person.

#3 Aris­to­tle’s most im­por­tant work is the Nico­machean Ethics, which de­fines what makes a per­son good.

#4 Aris­to­tle’s ul­ti­mate goal for hu­mans is hap­pi­ness. He claims that hap­pi­ness is the thing we want to be, just… to be it. It has no aim other than it­self. It’s the top dog on the list of things we de­sire.
