Krátky popis
THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER* From the writer and executive
producer of the award-winning Netflix series The Good Place that
made moral philosophy fun: a foolproof guide to making the correct
moral decision in every situation you ever encounter, anywhere on
earth, forever *'An absolute breeze to read; funny and enlightening
and revealing' - Guardian'Enormously enjoyable, useful and
readable' - The TimesHow can we live a more ethical life?This
question has plagued people for thousands of years, but it's never
been tougher to answer than it is now, thanks to challenges great
and small that flood our day-to-day lives and threaten to overwhelm
us with impossible decisions and complicated results with
unintended consequences. Plus, being anything close to an 'ethical
person' requires daily thought and introspection and hard work; we
have to think about how we can be good not, you know, once a month,
but literally all the time. To make it a little less overwhelming,
this fascinating, accessible and funny book by one of our
generation's best writers and adept minds in television comedy,
Michael Schur, boils down the whole confusing morass with real life
dilemmas (from 'should I punch my friend in the face for no
reason?' to 'can I still enjoy great art if it was created by
terrible people?'), so that we know how to deal with ethical
dilemmas. Much as Chidi used humour and philosophy to make Eleanor
a less selfish person, Schur takes us on a journey through the
2,500-year discussion of ethics, sketching a roadmap for how we
ought to act along the way. By the time the book is done, we'll
know exactly how to act in every conceivable situation, so as to
produce a verifiably maximal amount of moral good. We will be
perfect, and all our friends will be jealous. OK, not quite.
Instead, we'll gain fresh, funny, inspiring wisdom on the toughest
issues we face every dayWith contributions from Professor Todd May
of Clemson University, who served as an advisor on The Good Place,
this is a brilliant, clever and hugely entertaining book about one
of the most important topics in the world. 'The problem is, if all
you care about in the world is the velvet rope, you will always be
unhappy, no matter which side you're on.' - Tahani Al-Jamil, The
Good Place
