Download or read book Being and Worth written by Andrew Collier and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2005-08-03 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Being and Worth extends recent depth-realist philosophy to the question of values. It argues that beings both in the natural and human worlds have worth in themselves, whether we recognise it or not. This view is defended through and account of the human mind as essentially concerned with that of which it is independent. Conclusions follow both for environmental ethics - that natural beings should be valued for themselves, not just for their use to us - and for justice in the human world, based on the idea that humans are unique and equal in respect of 'having a life to live'.
