Publisher's Synopsis
The Ethics of Freedom: Notes Selected, Translated and Arranged (1911) is a book written by George Paxton Young. It is a comprehensive collection of philosophical notes and essays that explore the concept of freedom from various perspectives. The book is divided into three parts. The first part deals with the ethical foundations of freedom, discussing topics such as the nature of moral responsibility, the relationship between freedom and morality, and the role of the individual in society. The second part explores the political dimensions of freedom, examining issues such as the relationship between freedom and democracy, the role of the state in protecting individual liberties, and the limits of government power. The final part of the book focuses on the metaphysical dimensions of freedom, discussing topics such as the nature of free will, the relationship between freedom and determinism, and the possibility of human agency in a world governed by natural laws. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the philosophy of freedom, and it remains relevant and thought-provoking more than a century after its original publication.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
