Abstract
This chapter discusses the minimally good human life account of needs. On the minimally good human life account, people need whatever enables them to live minimally good human lives. Most perfectionists are concerned with what it is for a human life to be good as opposed to minimally good. The chapter suggests that whether or not one lives a minimally good human life is not a completely subjective matter. Rather, a minimally good human life is characteristically choice-worthy and a life in which one can make some significant choices. In making such choices one must be free to shape one's own life. Indeed, because humans are distinctively autonomous creatures, autonomy is characteristic of a minimally good human life.
