Trade Review
This is an excellent hybrid text that covers a wide-range of topics in ethics, both theoretical and applied. As I said last time: 'This book offers a comprehensive collection of important historical and contemporary readings in ethics covering every major moral theory * along with a broad range of contemporary moral problemsall of which are accompanied by substantial introductions by one of the best ethicists working today.' I stand by what I said!" Joshua Tepley, Saint Anselm College *
This is a very good textbook for a 100-level course. I think it's the best on the market." Jeffrey Brown, The University of Northern Colorado
