Peter Singer - The Life of an Effective Altruist

Peter singer has written a number of books on effective altruism. He says the most good you can do is to be something like a mother theresa or a buddha, dedicating every second that i have now at this pont in the conversation. People often come up with arguments for why they act the way they do which aren't necessarily philosophically sound but are attempts trying to justify the way that they already behave.
