Theoretical Ethics by Milton Valentine

In this brilliant work of moral philosophy, Milton Valentine presents a systematic and penetrating study of the foundational principles of ethics. Theoretical Ethics explores the nature of moral obligation, the sources of moral law, and the relationship between human freedom, virtue, and the highest good.

Drawing from Scripture, philosophy, and a broad range of Christian theologians, Valentine engages the most essential questions about the moral life: What is the basis of right and wrong? How does moral law relate to human nature? What is the ultimate end for which we live? His treatment is both philosophically rigorous and theologically grounded, making the work a worthwhile contribution to both general moral philosophy and Christian thought.
