Moral Enhancement

Discover the thought-provoking insights of Moral Enhancement by Michael Hauskeller, published by Cambridge University Press in 2018. This compelling volume, spanning 454 pages, brings together a collection of papers presented at the esteemed 2016 Royal Institute of Philosophy annual conference.

Ideal for scholars and anyone interested in the intersections of philosophy, ethics, and science, this book is a must-read for those eager to engage with contemporary debates on moral improvement.
