Recenzii

It is good to have a new edition of this very useful and informative work. The essays offer clear and sympathetic treatments of a range of key ethical thinkers, including now chapters on Chinese, Indian and African ethics. It is highly recommended to anyone looking to explore this fascinating field, and learn more about the ethical insights to be learned from its history.
Ethics: The Key Thinkers is an uncommonly successful integration of explanation and critical discussion. The treatment of thinkers is historically informed and negotiates the conceptual terrain-now global in scope-with admirable clarity. The chapters are philosophically rich but also accessible, making the volume a valuable resource at many levels.
