Hume, Mill, and Singer

Book Summary by: AcaDemon     


This six-page graduate-level paper compares Hume's "Enquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals", Mill's "Utilitarianism",
and Singer's "Animal Liberation". The author uses the accounts of sympathy, justice, and moral progress in Mill and Hume to consider how relativism allows for the progress of moral sentiment, then applies Singer's philosophy to this in discussing his place within their arguments.
