The Ethics of Hercules: A Study of Man's Body as the Sole Determinant of Ethical Values

1924. Condemning the notion that values of life are to be derived "from above," the author shows that every ethical judgment is to be explained as a reaction to an exciting stimulus. Not only is human conduct the result of external and internal stimuli upon the human boy, but even our notions of right and wrong are derived from the reactions of our nerves and muscles to the various stimuli which excite them.
