Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Factors in Conduct This little book is a companion volume to The Unfolding of Personality. It passes on, in brief and unpretentious fashion, from the psychological view of behaviour there presented to an ethical view. Perhaps the best apology the book offers for itself is its brevity. Written before the war, though revised for the press since, it makes no direct reference to the burning questions of the hour. It only aims to be a short and popular preface to ethical discussion. At no point is morality spoken of as though it were an artificial or super-normal product, an ´extra´; but everywhere as being embedded in life as men live it. The view taken is simply that ´moral action is healthy action´; or, in terms of evolution, that ´natural selection selects morality.´ Morality, in a word, belongs to man. It stands for the part he has to play. This is the suggestion of the frontispiece, which commemorates the action of a young Canadian who gave his life in endeavouring to save a friend from drowning.
