Recenzii

I believe this is one of the best ethics anthologies available... It gives a good selection of traditional and important ethical theories, excerpts of classics in the field, applications of ethics to current controversies and other materials that exemplify the abstract theories." - Glen A. Mazis, Penn State Harrisburg
The overall quality of the book is excellent. It's breadth and depth in ethics and literature is rivaled by no other introductory text. The editors introductions to the topics and to each reading are brief and crystal clear. It's accessible enough to be assigned in an introductory course. The book is impeccably organized, covers most of the topics I teach in my ethics courses and many others." - Travis Timmerman, Seton Hall University
Excellent book. Great coverage of topics. Allows different instructors to use the same text but have different emphases
