Motive and RightnessMotive and Rightness is the first book length attempt to answer the question: Does the motive of an action ever make a difference to whether that action is morally right or wrong?

He examines the major contemporary moral theories to see if they can provide a plausible account of the relevance of motives to rightness and wrongness, and argues that consequentialism gives a better account of these matters
