Doing Ethics emphasizes that ethics is an activity—something you do—rather than a body of knowledge that you memorize.
Stressing critical thinking throughout the book, Lewis Vaughn motivates students to wrestle with moral quandaries from the start. His clear prose ensures that students understand major arguments and core concepts, and the extensive readings and exercises provide plenty of thought-provoking material for in-class discussions and student papers. Practical, clear and comprehensive, Doing Ethics will inspire students to see ethics not just as a distribution requirement, but as a lifelong project.

This review is from: Doing Ethics: Moral Reasoning and Contemporary Issues (Second Edition) (Paperback)
Book came to me new without flaws or defects. Bought this for a class online because it was cheaper than what my school store sold it for. At the end of the class I sold it back to the school store for a profit. Can't argue with that.

Clearly written and easy to understand, which is great for many of the abstract concepts discussed.
