As for the Hobbesians, Singer attempts a response in the final chapter of Practical Ethics, arguing that self-interested reasons support adoption of the moral point of view, such as ' the paradox of hedonism ', which counsels that happiness is best found by not looking for it, and the need most people feel to relate to something larger than their own concerns.
