This article focuses on two books—"Moral Values," by Walter Goodnow Everett and "The Principles of the Moral Empire," by Kojiro Sugimori. "Morality is as wide as are the interests of life and must extend to the control of every part of its manifold content. It has no separate interest, but the principle of the order and harmony of the whole." These sentences by Everett express fully the point of view from which he treats his subject. Ethics for him is the science of values. In this sense, but in no other, it is a normative science it deals with the things that give the norm for rational living.
