More about the book

Exploring the interplay between physical causes and moral judgment, this book by Benjamin Rush examines how factors like disease, climate, and diet influence a person's moral faculty. Rush, a physician and Declaration of Independence signer, argues that these physical elements can affect the brain and nervous system, thereby shaping moral behavior. Additionally, he discusses the roles of education and religion in moral development. This scholarly work is an early contribution to medical psychology, drawing from diverse sources and remains relevant in academic discussions today.
