""An Enquiry Into The Origin Of Honour And The Usefulness Of Christianity In War"" is a philosophical treatise written by Bernard Mandeville. The book explores the concepts of honor and Christianity in the context of war. Mandeville examines the origins of honor and argues that it stems from a desire for social recognition and status. He also discusses the role of Christianity in war, questioning whether it is useful or harmful to the conduct of warfare. Mandeville's work is a thought-provoking analysis of the relationship between morality, religion, and warfare. It is a must-read for anyone interested in philosophy, ethics, or military history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
