Summary
Is it ever possible to make good out of evil? The End and the Means deals with the most ancient moral question of humanity whether good ends could justify evil methods. Noah Noel explores the thin wire balancing the purpose and conscience, idealism and realism through history, philosophy and reflection. In Machiavelli and the tragedies of ill-chosen revolutions, the book shows that even good intentions can corrupt when in place of the ethics, success was sacrificed. It ends up being a moral way, where ambition follows integrity, and the end is as pure as the means it consists of.
