The concept of ethics, by Walter Stace

In this book, the English-born philosopher Walter Stace tries to provide answers to those thorny questions related to ethics and the question of whether they are relative or absolute. What distinguishes this book mainly is its departure from difficult academic language and its use of simple philosophical language, in addition to the clarity and lucidity of ideas. Stace is famous for his writings on philosophy, ethics, mysticism, and religion, and his most famous works have been translated into Arabic, such as: Religion and Modern Thought – Mysticism and Philosophy – Time and Eternity. In this book, we cannot help but notice his genuine humanitarian tendency and his attempt to re-establish the philosophy of ethics on a solid basis in the face of the sweeping relativism that philosophy inclined to in the twentieth century. It is an exciting journey in which Stace continues with his beautiful philosophical language what great humanist philosophers began, starting from Socrates and Plato, passing through Kant and Tolstoy, and reaching Freud, in an attempt to establish a firm foundation for ethics.
