"the most significant work in ethics since Sidgwick's masterpiece was published in 1873 . . . a work of epic proportions and ambitions" --Peter Singer, Times Literary Supplement


"[On What Matters] stands as a grand and dedicated attempt to elaborate a fundamentally misguided perspective. Its diligence and its honesty command respect. Perhaps these real virtues will set standards for a very different ventures in academic ethics. Naturalist or otherwise--for a return to the tradition of attempts to understand and improve everyday judgment, and to provide resources for people and policymakers everywhere. In the end, that is what matters." --Philip Kitcher, The New Republic


"an epochal work . . . a remarkable achievement, giving us a truly comprehensive picture of the moral outlook --both normative and metaethical --of one of the greatest moral thinkers of our time." --Mark Schroeder, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews


"This two volume set is both an impressive feat of sustained reasoning and one to which readers can refer for interesting discussions on any number of topics. It seems destined to join Sidgwick's book in the list of great ethical treatises. Highly recommended." --CHOICE
