We are surviving in the most moral amount of our types' background. Best-selling creator Michael Shermer's most accomplished and ambitious reserve to date shows how the methodical thought process has made people, and society as a whole, more moral. Ever since the Age of Reason and the Enlightenment thinkers consciously applied the methods of science to resolve public and moral problems. The experimental methods and analytical reasoning of science created the modern world of liberal democracies, civil protection under the law and civil liberties, identical justice under the law, open political and economic borders, free intellects and free markets, and prosperity the likes of which no human being society ever sold has ever savored. More people in more places have greater protection under the law, freedoms, liberties, literacy, education, and prosperity - the likes of which no human being society ever sold has ever savored. In this particular provocative and engaging book - that includes quick histories of flexibility rights, women's protection under the law, gay protection under the law, and animal protection under the law, along with concerns of the type of bad and moral regress - Shermer talks about how abstract reasoning, rationality, empiricism, skepticism - methodical ways of thinking - have profoundly improved the way we understand morality and, indeed, move us ever before closer to a more just world.
