Recenzii
This text is an excellent choice for an introductory course in the discipline."
Ethical Choices is a great textbook with exceptional value. The book is more theoretical, but the cases and the final section are very practical, so there is plenty of application to be had. Ethical Choices is a more than a presentation of alternative ethical standpoints; it is an exploration of the field of ethics. It introduces students to terminology, values, and issues involved in the study of ethics, as well as theories and their application to a diverse number of issues."
The organization of each chapter works quite well, including (though not limited to) its visual organization. I think that students appreciate that they can easily refer to section headers to find discussion questions, summaries, key terms, and case studies. It provides a solid philosophical foundation for introducing ethics and moral philosophy to college students. The material is accessible and engaging, and the additional resources at the end of each chapter offer ways for students to easily test their own understanding of what they've read."
Ethical Choices is affordable, organized, and pedagogically superior. The scaffolding approach in which each short chapter section includes summaries, questions, and key terms helps students master the material in small manageable steps. The case studies increase student interest, facilitate classroom, discussion, and help students understand the practical and personal implications of each theory."
