Marriage and Morals

Bertrand Russell,

About this book

The eminent philosopher presents a bold and persuasive reassessment of sexual ethics and conventional marriage.

In Marriage and Morals, Bertrand Russell shines a revealing light on contemporary attitudes toward sex and marriage. He begins with a cross-cultural examination of individual, familial, and societal norms, showing how prevailing moral codes are out of step with a humanistic approach to happiness and wellbeing.

Russell then proposes a new morality that recognizes the realities of modern society, such as the emancipation of women and the widespread use of contraceptives. From the origin of marriage to the influence of religion, Russell explores the changing roles of these foundational social institutions.
