No matter how much we would like it to be otherwise, there are no
simple straightforward solutions to moral dilemmas , nor there is a
single way to approach ethical issues. Every ethical challenge can be
examined from various perspectives, and thus, the outcome may vary
depending on the path chosen. For centuries, philosophers have been
trying to find answers to fundamental questions such as “What does
it mean to be a ‘good’ person?” and “What should laws and
norms entail ?” While these questions led to nuanced and insightful
discussions attracting the attention of people from diverse aspects of
life, so far there has been no absolute success in resolving them.
However, by adding the tools of quantum paradigm to those of
conventional philosophy, we may illuminate these complex questions.
Drawing upon one of the most famous quotes attributed to Plato -
“the right question is usually more important than the right
answer”- the purpose of this book is not to find the “right”
answers. Instead, it seeks to offer the kind of insight that is drawn
from behavioral science and the wisdom of influential philosophers
throughout centuries. The book is crafted to guide readers in
exploring ethics through some important philosophers, social
psychological experiments, and ethical codes. This book will ensure
that what answers you might arrive at the end will be built on a more
solid foundation than before.
