The Moral Landscape

This provocative book challenges the idea that science has nothing to say about human values. Author Sam Harris argues that we can use our understanding of the human brain to establish right and wrong answers to questions of morality. As we learn more about the world, we can use science to live the best lives possible. Harris asserts that moral relativism is false and that religion has no place in determining human values. A must-read for anyone interested in philosophy and neuroscience.
