Supplément au voyage de Bougainville, ou dialogue entre A et B sur l'inconvénient d'attacher des idées morales à certaines actions physiques qui n'en comportent pas. ("Addendum to the Journey of Bougainville, or dialogues between A and B on the inconvenients of binding moral ideas to some physical actions which bear none") is a philosophical dialogue published in 1772, and written in reaction to Bougainville's Voyage autour du monde.
