The roots of moral reason

Renford Bambrough

pp. 162-175

Abstract

Is there a supreme arithmetical principle? Or a supreme principle of physics or economics or law or history? Is it even possible that there should be a supreme principle of any of these branches of knowledge or enquiry? If not, is the lack of such a principle fatal to the pretensions of any of these studies to be called a branch of knowledge?
