It offers a succinct historical elaboration of philosophical stances towards morality and happiness, focusing on Kant's ideas in particular. Human augmented ethical maturity in a futuristic version of Kant' Ethical Commonwealth implies, among else, the following features: 1. Voluntary Moral Bio-Enhancement (VMBE); 2. Consequently, more happiness-- as morality and happiness are in a circularly supportive relationship; 3. Ultimate Morality (UM). In feature 2, deontological practice would result in a utilitarian outcome. By fulfilling our moral duties based on UM, we would gradually create a world of post-humans who approach moral and thus felicific perfection. UM is in its own way a universal morality. In line with the contention that Kant's vision of the (not immediate but more distant) future of humanity is one of a cosmopolitan moral order in which humans act virtuously in the broadest possible community, that is, humanity, it is justified to conclude that successful VMBE is conducive to Kant's vision. Therefore, this book is of great interest to a broad audience, such as those interested in VMBE and novel conceptions of morality, and those with an interest in the historical development of morality and happiness, in philosophy (specifically, ethics) and in post-humanity. 001435722 650_0 $$aGood and evil. 001435722 650_0 $$aHappiness. 001435722 650_6 $$aBonheur. 001435722 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001435722 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z3030724727$$z9783030724726$$w(OCoLC)1240492187 001435722 830_0 $$aSpringerBriefs in ethics.$$x2211-8101 001435722 852__ $$bebk 001435722 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-72473-3$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001435722 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1435722$$pGLOBAL_SET 001435722 980__ $$aBIB 001435722 980__ $$aEBOOK 001435722 982__ $$aEbook 001435722 983__ $$aOnline 001435722 994__ $$a92$$bISE
