Okay. Here's some books and stuff. The first is co written by the most famous ethicist alive.

Ok. I haven't read his most recent books:
2015: about effective altruism
2014 coauthored: The Point of View of the Universe: Sidgwick and Contemporary Ethics
I'll look into the 2014 one.
Edit: Here's a quote from the blurb.
> The authors also explore, and in most cases support, Sidgwick's views on many other key questions in ethics: how to justify an ethical theory, the significance of an evolutionary explanation of our moral judgments, the choice between preference-utilitarianism and hedonistic utilitarianism, the conflict between self-interest and universal benevolence, whether something that it would be wrong to do openly can be right if kept secret, how demanding utilitarianism is, whether we should discount the future, or favor those who are worse off, the moral status of animals, and what is an optimum population.
So I was wrong, on account of outdated info. Thanks for letting me know!
