The Invention of Altruism: Making Moral Meanings in Victorian Britain - British Academy Monographs
Dixon, Thomas (Senior Lecturer in History, Queen Mary, University of London)
This volume explores how Victorian philosophers, scientists, clergymen, and novelists debated the meaning of the new term 'altruism'. Including a reappraisal of Charles Darwin's ideas and insights into the rise of popular socialism, this study is highly relevant to contemporary debates about altruism, evolution, religion, and ethics.
