Review

This is a rich, wide-ranging, and nicely accessible collection of many of moral philosophy?s greatest hits, updated to include an excellent new section in feminist ethics. A must-have for anyone interested in ethics. Hilde Lindemann, Michigan State University Praise for the First Edition: This collection is a very welcome addition. It is remarkable for the breadth of issues discussed and the diversity of positions represented. Throughout, the selections have been chosen with a keen eye for excellence and accessibility. Taken together, they provide a vivid panorama of ethical theory today. Peter Railton, University of Michigan It is a wonderfully comprehensive collection that manages to bring together well-chosen papers on a number of significant areas in moral theory. Geoff Sayre-McCord, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

Rented for my Intro To Ethics Class
The teacher said it had a great selection of all the arguments he wanted to cover.

The book is a little harder to read than others I've read. The text is smaller, which doesn't help.
