About this book
The title page presents Elements of Morals by Paul Janet as an application of moral law to the duties of the individual, society and the state. The section on moral sentiment describes pleasures and pains arising at the sight of good or evil in ourselves or in others. The discussion calls the pleasure following right action moral satisfaction, and the response to wrong action remorse or repentance.
The discussion of just war requires certain precautions and preparations even when a cause is just, including a subject of great consequence. The account requires some probability of success and calls exposing oneself foolhardily to certain destruction criminally rash.
