Self-Interest and Beyond by David M. Holley PDF Summary

Book Description: Holley (philosophy and business ethics, U. of Southern Mississippi) moves beyond Socrates' question "How ought we to live?" and asks, "How do we go about becoming a self that is worth becoming?" often showing the superficiality of much of what is considered valuable in the process. Using classical and contemporary philosophical ideas and stories from literature and film, he argues that in order to live a desirable life, a person must move beyond simple self-interest. This book is intended for readers without formal philosophical training, encouraging an audience inundated with self-help literature to see how to give self-interested thinking its due, while enlarging the field of awareness to incorporate other factors.
