Alan White claims that its author confused meaning with naming, and that his most important concept has been arrogated to the status of a property. Its author calls attention to the "principle of organic unities" and it ends by promoting the "aesthetic contemplation." It opens by drawing an analogy between a key concept and the term "yellow" [*] and argues that "a naturalistic fallacy" undermines the work of other thinkers who confuse desire with all of the things that are desirable. This work argues that philosophy should be primarily concerned with two questions: "What kinds of things ought to exist for their own sakes" and "What kind of actions ought we to perform." FTP identify this 1903 work that asks "What is good?," written by G.E. Moore.
