It seeks to explore fundamental questions about human conduct, ethics, and the nature of moral sentiments, primarily focusing on how these concepts are intertwined with human nature and experience. At the start of the work, the author introduces the relationship between ethics and theoretical philosophy, suggesting that ethical doctrines stem from metaphysical and psychological foundations. Sorley outlines various viewpoints that shape ethical understanding, such as teleological and empirical approaches.
