About this ebook
In his work Old-fashioned Ethics and Common-sense Metaphysics, William Thornton stepped aside from his usual economics topics and paid attention to philosophical issues. The book contains several essays that harshly criticize the views and opinions of multiple respected philosophers and intellectuals. It exposes, among others, David Hume, Thomas Henry Huxley, and the Utilitarian movement as a whole.
