Most people think of themselves as “good,” but it’s not always easy to determine what’s “good” or “bad”—especially in a world filled with complicated choices and pitfalls and booby traps and bad advice. Fortunately, many smart philosophers have been pondering this conundrum for millennia and they have guidance for us. With bright wit and deep insight, How to Be Perfect explains concepts like deontology, utilitarianism, existentialism, ubuntu, and more so we can sound cool at parties and become better people. Schur starts off with easy ethical questions like “Should I punch my friend in the face for no reason?” (No.) and works his way up to the most complex moral issues we all face. Such as: Can I still enjoy great art if it was created by terrible people? How much money should I give to charity? Why bother being good at all when there are no consequences for being bad? And much more. By the time the book is done, we’ll know exactly how to act in every conceivable situation, so as to produce a verifiably maximal amount of moral good. We will be perfect, and all our friends will be jealous. OK, not quite. Instead, we’ll gain fresh, funny, inspiring wisdom on the toughest issues we face every day. Review: Painless course in Philosophy 101 - Well-written, funny, extremely accessible overview of major schools of philosophy. I will reread this book many times. Review: That time Mose Schrute helped teach me to be a better person... - (That headline is a light-hearted dig because I know Mike Schur kinda hated playing Mose on The Office. In the spirit of the book: Mike, I apologize. :-) ) I heard about this book on the Office Ladies podcast when they interviewed Mike. They mentioned the title of the chapter about whether you really HAVE to return your shopping cart and I was sold--bought it the next day. I've always seen that as the lowest bar, minimum possible thing that humans can do to make the lives of other humans better--and I'm constantly shaking my head at the fact that so many people have such disregard for others that they don't return their damned carts! It's frustrating! Anyway...this book does not disappoint. Think of it as a humorous Cliffs Notes distillation of the many philosophies of morality. It's a book that makes you laugh and makes you think. And it really does give you some easy to understand (but hard to follow in some cases...that's the nature of being better, it's hard) guidelines for the things one can do to be a better person. It's so worth the read. Great stuff, Mike. I'm gonna go stream The Good Place now. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #13,694 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #211 in Sociology Reference #276 in Humor (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 2,466 Reviews | ## Images ![How to Be Perfect: The Correct Answer to Every Moral Question - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71vwuIqSWhL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Painless course in Philosophy 101 *by P***S on August 10, 2026* Well-written, funny, extremely accessible overview of major schools of philosophy.

He’s super insightful and knowledgeable and makes digestible philosophical quandaries relatable and poignant for the average reader. A few chapters could have been fleshed out a bit, but it’s a perfect beach weekend read for anyone interested in the state of the world and being a good human. ## Frequently Bought Together - How to Be Perfect: The Correct Answer to Every Moral Question - The Good Place and Philosophy: Everything is Forking Fine!
