  Stanford Moore Summary
Stanford Moore was born in 1913, in Chicago, Illinois, but spent most of his childhood in Nashville, Tennessee, where his father was a professor at Vanderbilt University's School of Law.
Moore's research focused on the relationship between the chemical structure of proteins, which are made up of strings of amino acids, and their biological action.
Moore graduated summa cum laude from Vanderbilt University, where he was a member of Phi Kappa Sigma, in 1935 and earned his doctorate in Organic Chemistry from the University of Wisconsin in 1938.

 Moore's Moral Philosophy (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy)
Moore's second innovation was his view that the intrinsic value of a state of affairs can depend only on its intrinsic properties, properties it has apart from any relations to other states.
Moore might claim that an artist must understand and love his work's beauty if he is to create it, perhaps even more than someone who merely enjoys it; but the value in the artist's work is still not distinctively creative.
Whereas Moore sometimes claimed that certain moral propositions are self-evident when considered on their own, philosophers today are more likely to give coherence arguments, appealing to intuitive judgements at different levels of generality and if possible on different topics, to arrive at an overall position with intuitive support at many points.

 George Edward Moore (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy)
Moore concentrates here on the case of a ‘sensation of blue’ and maintains that this experience is a kind of ‘diaphanous’ consciousness or awareness of blue, which is not a ‘content’ of experience at all, but something real whose existence is not dependent on experience.
Moore's argument against the thesis that all relations are internal starts from the claim that the burden of proof lies on its supporters since it conflicts with our common sense conviction that things are not essentially inter-related in such a way that a change to one thing in one respect necessitates changes to everything else.
Moore then argues that the best reason one could have for the thesis involves a logical fallacy; he shows how the thesis that all relations are internal might be plausibly, but fallaciously, inferred from Leibniz’ Law, the uncontentious principle that things which differ in their relations must differ in their identity.
