(One thing worth noting is that Sidgwick’s ‘The Method of Ethics’ is very long and dense. I think it’s more philosophy than most people will be interested in reading in their entire lives, and for this reason I don’t generally recommend it to EAs, similar to why I don’t generally recommend that people read Reasons and Persons in full.)

Thanks, I suspected as much. Peter Singer’s Sidgwick book is probably a much better recommendation to make!
