Creatures of Habit The Consolations of Philosophy written by Alain de Botton recounts the life of French essayist Michel de Montaigne and his journey beyond the boundaries of France.

Kant asserts that to fully determine if an act is morally permissible‚ the maxim of the act must be universalizable (Nefsky‚ lec 7‚ slide 15). To
