The Moral Landscape

In "The Moral Landscape," Sam Harris challenges the commonly held belief that science cannot address questions of human values, morality, and meaning, arguing that it actually can and should. Drawing on philosophy and neuroscience, he presents a secular perspective on fundamental questions about right and wrong, emphasizing that moral answers are grounded in our understanding of the human brain and experience. Harris contends that moral relativism is flawed and highlights its potential costs, offering an insightful perspective on the future intersection of science and morality.
