Book Synopsis
What is the difference between right and wrong? Combining cognitive science with a pragmatist philosophical framework, this book argues that appealing solely to absolute principles and values is not only scientifically unsound but even morally suspect.

Trade Review
"In Morality for Humans, Johnson has his hands on what counts in life: how moral appraisals are not separate from intelligence, aesthetic sensibility, flexibility, imagination, or creativity. In fact, that is how the book unfolds, by showing the interrelationship of these constructs. The end is human flourishing, respect for the unifying sensibilities of our experiences and their complexities, and a positive sense of well-being." (Jay Schulkin, Georgetown University)"
