Publisher's Synopsis
This book is a groundbreaking exploration of the relationship between morality and human nature, based on principles of the French Enlightenment. The book argues that human nature is the basis of morality, and that the principles of natural law can be deduced from the study of human anatomy, physiology, and psychology. The book also offers a critique of traditional religious and philosophical systems of ethics, and advocates for a new, rational approach to morality that is grounded in scientific principles. With its bold and innovative ideas, The Law of Nature is a classic work of Enlightenment thought.
