Book Overview

Sociology and Ethics: The Facts of Social Life as the Source of Solutions for the Theoretical and Practical Problems of Ethics is a book written by Edward Cary Hayes and first published in 1921. The book explores the relationship between sociology and ethics, arguing that the study of social life can provide solutions to ethical problems. Hayes begins by examining the nature of ethics and the various theories that have been proposed to explain it. He then turns to sociology, discussing its origins and development as a field of study. He argues that sociology provides a unique perspective on social life, one that can shed light on ethical issues and dilemmas.Throughout the book, Hayes draws on examples from history and contemporary society to illustrate his points. He discusses topics such as crime, poverty, and inequality, and examines how sociological insights can inform ethical debates around these issues. He also explores the role of institutions such as the family, the state, and religion in shaping ethical behavior.Overall, Sociology and Ethics is a thought-provoking exploration of the relationship between two important fields of study. It offers a compelling argument for the relevance of sociology to ethical debates, and provides readers with a deeper understanding of the complex social forces that shape our moral lives.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
