What if virtue and happiness could truly align? In this landmark philosophical ethics book, John Bowring distils the enduring wisdom of Jeremy Bentham's manuscripts, offering a lucid guide to the science of morality for the modern reader. Deontology Or, The Science Of Morality (Volume II) explores the intricate relationship between duty and self-interest, showing how prudence and benevolence, virtue and felicity, need not be at odds but can harmonise in the business of life. A cornerstone of early 19th century moral philosophy, this volume stands at the crossroads of utilitarianism and deontology, inviting both scholars of philosophy and curious minds to examine the foundations of ethical living. Its Victorian philosophical insights remain strikingly relevant, providing a thoughtful academic ethics resource as well as a compelling companion for those seeking clarity on the choices that shape character and society. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. Whether you are deepening your understanding of Jeremy Bentham studies or simply drawn to classic works that illuminate the nature of virtue, this is more than a moral philosophy guide; it is a cultural touchstone for generations.
