Review Question:
Describe Nowheresville. How is this world different from our world?
This is a beginning of the true send of duty to be more purpose and responsible for any action that we made, this is different because duties are allowable with any action as long you have the rights.
Explain the doctrine of the logical correlativity of right and duties. What is Feinberg’s position on this doctrine?
This are the doctrine that all duties are involve which require other people believes and rights. Other duties intend to show that we used action when they feel to do that action; this is like an extensive but lacking in originality usage.

How does Feinberg explain the concept of personal desert? How would personal desert work in Nowheresville?
This will work by giving the right decision to the people by giving them an exact amount of care and providing a rights to the community when a people deserves to have right.
Explain the notion of a sovereign right-monopoly. How would this work in Nowheresville according to Feinberg?
This will work because this is the right to control this is like controlling the right of other people so that this is not good to implement.
What are claim-rights? Why does Feinberg think they are morally important?
These are the different opinion of the people which is connected to the right of a person which intend to make a connection between the rights and the people who affected it is like a petition to have a correct and equal distribution of right.

Quote: “with the greatest sufferings and misfortunes, but a man who was living so no one would call happy unless he were maintaining a thesis at all cost”
For my personal reaction on this statement, it shows that everyone can be happy but not at all time because according to the statement he can be happy as long as there are maintaining a theory every time, so that being happy is not what you got all the things in you life but is like having a good idea and never lost this idea at all time this is according to the statement.

Review:
To start the review let me first discuss who the author of the book is, he is Aristotle he is one of the famous philosopher in the world. He is famous in formulation of traditional logic he also argues that all human seek happiness in life which will be discuss in the book.
The book show that the happiness seeks by the people is real because they are happy in different way and angle which is true but the happiness they achieve is temporary. Happiness is one thing that is desirable. The book also covers those two kinds of virtue in life,
So in generalization this book talks about the theories of Aristotle and how the happiness and virtue connected to each other but in different meaning, and also which is good and why the two connected,

What I’ve learned:
• I learned who the author of the book is.
• I learned what the meaning of Happiness is.
• I learned what the meaning of Virtue is.
• I learned that there are two kind of virtue.
Questions:
1. Do you think happiness is real?
2. What is the Happiness of life?
3. Do you achieve the happiness with other people?
4. Do you think is this happening today?
5. Is it good to become happy while you are doing the wrong thing?
Citation: (James E. White, St. Cloud State University, 2003)

What is happiness, accoring to Aristotle? How is it related to virtue? How is it related to pleasure?
Happiness is like a food because it is for all the people in the world and for everyone. When we feel good for other and for ourselves this is happiness. For Aristotle happiness is within the human self, human virtue and those are the ethical and for personal viewpoint of every person.
How does Aristotle expain moral virtue?
Aristotle applies the moral virtue in a way that this is his habit so that this is every person his or her habit. Those habits are the trademark of every human being and this is serving as a character or attitude of a person. Aristotle sees the different virtue of the people that is the person attitude and what is or she rose. This is the thing where we believe and where we raised our personality.

Is it possible for everyone in our society to be happy, as Aristotle explains? If not, who cannot be happy?
Aristotle want every people in the society to be happy and he has a lot of reason why should this happen and what are the possibilities to make this happen. And for me I think every people in the society has a change to attain happiness in life, this is a free and when you achieve happiness and all people get happiness in life I think this is better to the community and society. Every person can have their happiness it a matter of time when he/she will be happy. For human being no one can decide that you are happy but you self only. Because happiness is not a tangible material but this is inside in the human nature.
Discussion Questions:
Aristotle characterizes a life of pleasure as a suitable for beasts. But what, if anything, is wrong with a life of pleasure?
Aristotle characterizes a life of pleasure as a suitable for beasts because we as a human being we wants pleasure in life, and for my personal side this pleasure is something that you will decide, so that we have our own mind to decide what is wrong. Different culture and religion practice their morality in life so for other thing are right and other are wrong. If you get the right pleasure in the right time you will achieve your happiness in life that is the true pleasure when you attain the happiness in life.
Aristotle claims that the philosopher will be happier than anyone else. Why is this? Do you agree or not?
Aristotle is trying to show us what his own perspective view of what is happiness is. We can apply this because everyone in the world has a change to become philosopher but in the end only yourself are the one who can said the you are happy or not because it is within human being as a circumstance of individual

Quote: “It is impossible to conceive anything at all in the world, or even out of it, which can be taken as good without qualification, except a good will”

Review Question:
Explain Kant’s account of the good will
Good will is the things that are possibility or chance to visualize in this world, sometimes goodwill produce good and bad because sometimes there is a possibility that you may affect other person or your own self.
Distinguish between hypothetical and categorical imperatives.
Categorical imperative is you will easily know what it contains, and this becomes the universal law of all. While the hypothetical is like a wild guess because you have no idea on what will happen.
State the first formulation of the categorical imperative (using the notion of a universe law), and explain how Kant uses this rule to derive some specific duties toward self and others.
This is just an opinion, this is his idea and what is the main purpose of the idea.
State the second version of the categorical imperative (using the language of means and ends). And explain it.
We set the community as a not balance settings we leave anxious whether the people who suffer is there. We shall be able to share to them what is the true meaning of imperative and what the theory means.

And to begin the review the topic discuss the principle of happiness which in equality side, this topic shows that in order for you to become happy there is a certain approval this is the approval of all people, but it depends on the act of a person, and the example of this is stealing if you think you are happy in stealing other peoples money, and as a utilitarianism community legal aspect stealing is wrong so the majority wins,

Citation: (James E. White, St. Cloud State University, 2003)

Review Question:
State and explain the principles of utility. Show how it could be used to justify actions that are conventionally viewed as wrong, such as lying and stealing.
A utility principle means that the idea of moral work is conducted by overall utility. This is a majority action of the people what they want their happiness, and other thing. Their choices are majority of other people even if they not agree; the majority of other people become the rule and this become as a general rule for all of the people. Other people and the majority of the people know and agree that stealing is prohibited so that this is not applicable for a person to do stealing even the person wants to do that.
How does Mill reply to the objection that Epicureanism is a doctrine worthy only of swine?
In the chapter it says that Mill that he don’t want to agree that the rule of Epicureanism is liable with the perfection in imagining of the different consequences from the other utilitarian people. Because doing that is like a insulating of all people in the community.
How does Mill distinguish between higher and lower pleasures?
It shows that higher pleasures are the thing or act that is some people can’t do that and can’t refuse to go along with because it is not easily to achieve while lower pleasure is the thing that is advantage to you and easy to achieve like taking care of others people life your own life.
According to Mill, whose happiness must be considered? T
he Happiness to consider is the happiness of all the people, because the utilitarianism is majority so that the first priority is the majority number of people. The good things that will make the people happy this is the best happiness for the people.
Carefully reconstruct Mill’s proof of the principle of utility
Base on my own perspective mills proof principle of utility if we have something to act or to show to the other people you should think if the majority will become happy or it will produce unhappiness. In generalization principle of utility is doing something that the majority should agree.
