Description
The Methods of Ethics by Henry Sidgwick is a foundational work in the utilitarian tradition. First published in 1874 and revised until its seventh edition in 1907, this book presents a clear and accessible formulation of what is often referred to as 'the classical utilitarian doctrine'. The central idea is that the ultimate moral end of social and individual action is to achieve the greatest net sum of happiness among all sentient beings.
