Product Information
Henry Sidgwick is one of the great intellectual figures of 19th century Britain. He was first and foremost a great moral philosopher, whose masterwork The Methods of Ethics is still widely studied today. But he was many other things besides, writing on economics, politics, education and literature. Bart Schultz has written a magisterial overview of this great Victorian sage.This biography will be eagerly sought out by readers interested in philosophy, Victorian literary studies, the history of ideas, the history of psychology and gender and gay studies.

Reviews
"the best biography of a philosopher to appear in many years, and perhaps the best ever produced about a British thinker" Martha Nussbaum for The Nation, '... he has produced a magnificent, close-focus study of the progress of a fine-honed intelligence in ongoing pursuit of the ultimate truth about the universe.' Contemporary Review, "This book will be a godsend to dedicated scholars of Victorian life and culture. Recommended." H.J. John, emerita, Trinity College (DC), CHOICE, "Schultz's volume deserves to be widely read by scholars of high Victorian history of science since it provides so rich an analysis of both the thought and the personality of a Victorian philosopher deeply impacted by the science of his day. It also provides a way to begin to understand the transformations in Cambridge University, where Sidgwick was a leading citizen for almost half a century, as the age of Whewell passed and a new kind of university began to emerge." Frank M. Turner, Review of the hardback: 'This is an extraordinary - and extraordinarily interesting - book, a model of intellectual biography.' London Review of Books, "Schultz's erudite prose and meticulous scholarship make this a compelling study for ... libraries." Library Journal, 'No brief review can do justice either to this rich and massive book or to the man who is its subject. ... Any future biographical or philosophical study of Sidgwick will have to begin from this volume. ... I found reading it a stimulating and rewarding experience' Journal of the Society of Psychical Research, Review of the hardback: '… does justice, at last, to the greatest exponent of utilitarian ethics, and one of the greatest moral philosophers of all time.' The Irish Times, 'No brief review can do justice either to this rich and massive book or to the man who is its subject. ... Any future biographical or philosophical study of Sidgwick will have to begin from this volume. ... I found reading it a stimulating and rewarding experience.' Journal of the Society of Psychical Research, "Henry Sidgwick was one of the greatest moral philosophers ever. With ever-increasing interest in his work, there is an urgent need for a book situating Sidgwick both in the history of ideas and in the context of his time. This fascinating, wide-ranging, and provocative book, by a fine scholar, meets that need." Roger Crisp, St. Anne's College, Oxford, "Bart Schultz has written a magisterial overview of this great Victorian sage. This biography will be eagerly sought out by readers interested in philosophy, Victorian literary studies, the history of ideas, the history of pyschology and gender and gay studies." Q Literature Summer Reading, 'This is an extraordinary - and extraordinarily interesting - book, a model of intellectual biography.' London Review of Books, "Henry Sidgwick remains a thinker of the first importance for present day work in moral and social thought. Bart Schulz's major new study spells out in accessible terms the content of Sidgwick's philosophy as well as the controversies it still generates. It also paints a broad and compelling picture of a great Victorian's wider intellectual and personal interests and those of his social circle. No other work brings these elements together so effectively: the philosophy, the man and the time. Anyone alsorested in Sidgwick will enjoy and profit from this book." John Skorupski, University of St. Andrews, Review of the hardback: '… he has produced a magnificent, close-focus study of the progress of a fine-honed intelligence in ongoing pursuit of the ultimate truth about the universe.' Contemporary Review, '... does justice, at last, to the greatest exponent of utilitarian ethcis, and one of the greatest moral philosophers of all time.' The Irish Times, Review of the hardback: 'No brief review can do justice either to this rich and massive book or to the man who is its subject. … Any future biographical or philosophical study of Sidgwick will have to begin from this volume. … I found reading it a stimulating and rewarding experience.' Journal of the Society of Psychical Research, "It will be a work on Sidgwick that all those who study him will have to reckon with for years to come. It is a welcome addition to the growing literature on Sidgwick." Philosophy in Review, Review of the hardback: 'The style is lively and direct … there is a deep, complex and carefully thought out thesis running through the work, one that strikes me as insightful and extremely useful in seeing Sidgwick's life and work altogether…' J. B. Schneewind, Author of Sidgwick's Ethics and Victorian Moral Philosophy, 'The style is lively and direct ... there is a deep, complex and carefully thought out thesis running through the work, one that strikes me as insightful and extremely useful in seeing Sidgwick's life and work altogether...'. J. B. Schneewind, Author of Sidgwick's Ethics and Victorian Moral Philosophy
