By Michael Morris

Book Description

In a world increasingly dominated by scientific materialism, philosopher Michael Morris presents a profound challenge to how we understand the nature of mind, truth, and human behavior. The Good and the True offers seekers a transformative perspective that places moral values at the very heart of consciousness and reality itself.

Morris dismantles the prevailing view that human behavior can be explained purely through mechanical causes, proposing instead that our mental states and actions are fundamentally intertwined with questions of value and goodness. This groundbreaking approach suggests that understanding another person requires not just observing their behavior, but evaluating the moral dimensions of their choices and intentions.

At the core of this philosophical exploration lies a revolutionary insight: truth itself is not merely a correspondence with facts, but a form of value that connects directly to moral goodness. This perspective offers readers a way to bridge the apparent gap between objective reality and subjective meaning, showing how our deepest understanding of others emerges through moral engagement rather than detached observation.

For those questioning the limitations of purely scientific worldviews, Morris provides rigorous philosophical tools to reclaim the significance of values, meaning, and moral truth in human experience. This work invites readers to consider how embracing truth as a value might transform their understanding of consciousness, relationships, and their place in the world.
