His best-known work is The Right and the Good (1930), in which he developed a pluralist, deontological form of intuitionist ethics. He also critically edited and translated a number of Aristotle's work. "Foundations of Ethics" addresses philosophical questions about the nature of 'rightness' and 'goodness'. Item #105585
