In Defense of Utilitarianism, C.L. Sheng provides a more intensive study of the Unified Utilitarian Theory (Uut), which he proposed in his previous work A New Approach to Utilitarianism (Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1991). Sheng defends utilitarianism, particularly Uut, against the objections and attacks raised by nonutilitarians, showing it to be a viable ethical theory.
